2018 Map of Louisville

About this map

Louisville stands at the confluence of several vital watercourses, where Rock Cr and Adams Cr meet before joining the larger Vermillion Creek. This Kansas landscape is defined by its agricultural legacy and early transit corridors, most notably the historic Oregon Trail Rd running along its southern edge. The area retains deep ties to its 19th-century roots, evidenced by the numerous burial grounds scattered across the countryside, including the Louisville Cem, Pleasant Hill Cem, and the Old County Farm Cem. The road network follows the section lines of the Public Land Survey System, though routes like Indian Village Rd and Water Mill Rd hint at earlier community hubs and industry. The terrain is a complex network of drainages, such as Brush Cr and Indian Cr, which have shaped the local farmsteads and settlement patterns through Pottawatomie County.
