2015 Map of Monett

About this map

The boundary between Lawrence and Barry counties splits the city of Monett, a vital regional hub centered on its grid of streets such as 9th St and 13th St. This 2015 survey reveals a landscape where organized civic life is anchored by numerous burial grounds, including the centrally located Oakdale Cemetery and Mount Calvary Cemetery. To the west, Pierce City stands along the edge of the sheet, while the rural surroundings are dotted with smaller communities like Pleasant Valley and the settlement of Lora to the south. The terrain is defined by a dendritic network of waterways, with Clear Creek and Kelly Creek draining the plains around the urban center. These creeks, alongside Hudson Creek and Pruitt Branch, dictate the winding paths of the numerous numbered farm roads that connect the outlying homesteads and agricultural tracts to the town center.
