About this map

The city of Newton serves as the focal point of this Harvey County survey, illustrating the modern expansion of this historic rail hub. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Sand Creek, which cuts through the heart of the city, while the institution of Bethel Coll anchors the northern district of North Newton. A complex transportation network is evident, showing the convergence of major regional routes and the local grid system that extends toward Walton in the northeast and the outlying settlement of McLains to the southeast.

Industrial and community landmarks are clearly documented, including the Newton-City-County Airport and established burial grounds such as Greenwood Cem and Saint Mary's Cem. The geography transitions from the urban density of the city center to the surrounding agricultural fields drained by E Fork Jester Cr and W Fork Jester Cr, providing a detailed view of the county's infrastructure and land use in the mid-2010s.
