About this map

New Paris and New Westville sit along the interstate corridor in this contemporary survey of the Indiana-Ohio borderlands. The landscape is defined by the headwaters of the East Fork Whitewater River and the winding course of Elkhorn Cr, which flows toward the southeastern edge of Richmond. This area maintains its agricultural character, evidenced by the numerous cemeteries including Spring Lawn Cem and the State Line Cem located directly on the boundary between Wayne County, Indiana, and Preble County, Ohio.

Industrial and transport infrastructure is represented by the Norfolk Southern rail line and the Richmond Municipal Airport in the south near Locust Grove. The map details a transition from the urban fringes of Richmond to the smaller rural hamlets like Campbellstown. Notable water features such as the Middle Fork Reservoir and Silver Lake provide significant geographic markers in this border region.
