2015 Map of Nixa

About this map

James River and Finley Creek define the geography of this corridor south of Springfield, where suburban expansion meets the longstanding agricultural boundaries of the Greene Co and Christian Co line. The growing municipality of Nixa serves as a central hub, surrounded by smaller communities like Battlefield, Fremont Hills, and Riverpark. This era shows a landscape transitioning through residential development while maintaining deep ties to its rural past, evidenced by numerous family and community burial grounds such as Patterson Cemetery, Payne Cemetery, and Bledsoe Memorial Cemetery. The terrain is marked by distinctive karst features like Avin Sink and the steep contours of Saunders Valley and McCafferty Hollow. Important water sources including Blue Spring, Young Spring, and Wasson Spring are scattered throughout the quadrangle, feeding the river system that eventually reaches Lake Springfield to the northeast.
