2016 Map of Lockbourne

About this map

Big Walnut Creek and Walnut Creek define the drainage of this central Ohio corridor, where the sprawling operations of Rickenbacker International Airport dominate the central landscape. The 2016 survey documents the urban-rural interface south of Columbus, showing the established neighborhoods of Obetz and Hamilton Meadows alongside the more traditional street grids of Groveport and Lockbourne. A significant number of family and community burial grounds, such as the Paul Peters Farm Cem and Rarey Cem, are preserved among the shifting land uses. The southern portion of the map transitions into Pickaway County at the settlement of Duvall, where the terrain flattens out towards the Scioto River. This geography highlights the transition from metropolitan expansion to the structured agricultural fields of the Scioto Valley, anchored by watercourses like Mud Run and Slate Run.
