2019 Map of Marietta

About this map

The Big Blue River and Sugar Creek carve through this agricultural landscape along the border of Johnson and Shelby counties. Small settlements and crossroads communities define the social geography of the area, with Marietta serving as a primary focal point. To the south, Mount Auburn sits amidst a network of rural routes, while the small hamlet of Bengal is situated to the north. The land is heavily managed for drainage, as evidenced by a complex system of waterways including Fisher Ditch, Shaw Ditch, and McCue Medsker Ditch.
