2009 Map of Mankato

About this map

Mankato sits as the central hub of this North Central Kansas landscape, where the street grid is clearly defined by thoroughfares like E Madison St and S East St. The town is surrounded by a network of drainage systems, including West Buffalo Creek and Middle Buffalo Creek, which carve through the Blue Hills Upland. For those researching local history or genealogy, the map identifies several key community sites such as Saint Teresa Cemetery, Mount Hope Cemetery, and the Lutheran Cemetery. Outside the main settlement, the East Union Community Hall and the Mankato Airport serve as primary landmarks. The geography is characterized by numerous seasonal and permanent watercourses like Troublesome Creek and Big Timber Creek that dictate the rural road patterns and land use in Jewell County.
