2015 Map of Matlock

About this map

Sheldon stands as a prominent hub in this Sioux County landscape, featuring the sprawling campus of Northwest Iowa Community Coll on its northern edge. The map captures a strictly organized agricultural grid, where section lines are defined by long-running corridors like Larch Ave and Marsh Ave. To the north, the small settlement of Matlock is situated near the winding course of Otter Creek, which meanders across the northwest corner. This 2015 survey reflects a classic rural Iowa township structure, where land use is dominated by expansive fields interrupted only by farmsteads and isolated landmarks such as Greenwood Cem. The southern extent is marked by the headwaters of the Floyd River, demonstrating how local drainage patterns dictated the positioning of original road networks and property boundaries.
