2010 Map of Missouri Valley

About this map

Missouri Valley serves as the primary hub in this Harrison County landscape, where the flat alluvial plains of the Boyer River meet the western Iowa bluffs. The town's grid is established around key local institutions like the Missouri Valley Post Office and the Harrison County Fairground, while its northern edge is defined by a cluster of local burial grounds including Old Frazier Cemetery, Mount Carmel Cemetery, and Rose Hill Cemetery. The western portion of the map is dominated by the Missouri River valley's lowlands, featuring oxbow water bodies such as De Soto Lake and Nobles Lake. This 2010 survey illustrates a region where transportation infrastructure, including the Missouri Valley Airport and the rail-oriented settlement of California Junction, integrates with an extensive agricultural drainage network consisting of Allen Creek, Willow Creek, and the Wilson Ditch. Small nodes like Findley represent the dispersed nature of local commerce along these historic waterways and roads.
