About this map

The agricultural landscape of Woodford County dominates this early 21st-century survey, centered on the historic rail-aligned settlements of Minonk and Rutland. The town of Minonk maintains a clear grid system anchored by streets like W 4th St and N Carolyn Dr, with the Saint Patricks Cem and Minonk Cem marking the community's southern and eastern edges. Northward, the village of Rutland sits along the county line, featuring the Rutland Cem and a compact network of roads including Walnut St and Broad St.

A notable characteristic of this area is the prevalence of private aviation, evidenced by multiple rural landing strips such as the John W Meils RLA Airport, Hattan Farms Airport, and Oltman-Shuck Airport. These facilities are integrated into a patchwork of section-line roads and natural drainage systems, including Panther Cr and the north and south branches of Crow Creek. This map illustrates the intersection of traditional Illinois prairie farming with modern local infrastructure.
