Mitchellville serves as the primary hub of this eastern Polk County landscape, which is defined by the winding course of the S Skunk River as it moves southeast through the central portion of the sheet. The town's grid is clearly delineated, bordered by Clarks Lake and the arterial highway system that bisects the region. Smaller rural nodes like Valeria, Santiago, and Oswalt highlight the distribution of agricultural settlements across the fertile plains.
