2013 Map of Monroe

About this map

Monroe and Middletown anchor this landscape along the border of Butler and Warren Counties, where suburban growth meets the agricultural history of southwestern Ohio. The map detail highlights several historic burial grounds, including the Mound Cem and the Otterbein Shaker Cem, which point to the region's early communal and religious roots. Residential developments like Evergreen Farm Estates, Brittany Heights, and Shadow Lake Village illustrate the mid-to-late 20th-century transition of former farmland into residential neighborhoods. This shift is balanced by preserved water features and recreation areas such as Armco Park Lake and Shroder Lake, while numerous small drainages like Millers Cr and Shaker Cr continue to define the natural topography of the watershed.
