2013 Map of Mount Vernon

About this map

The Ohio River frontage at Mount Vernon anchors this corner of Posey County, where the river's bend defines the southern landscape. The town serves as a regional hub with a dense street grid that transitions into a network of rural roads such as Winkler Ferry Rd and Mackey Ferry Rd, hinting at the area's river-dependent history. Inland, the map reveals a series of small, dispersed communities including Upton, Erwin, and Farmersville, alongside evocative local place names like Dead Mans Crossing. The topography is marked by low-lying water features such as Big Cr Slough and Cypress Slough, while Brewery Hill stands out as a rare named rise. Agriculture and light aviation meet at the Parrish Airport, situated near Indian Cr north of the main settlement. This layout shows a classic Midwestern river town balance between industrial-scale water transport and a quiet, farm-based interior.
