2017 Map of Nixa

About this map

The James River snakes through the center of this Missouri landscape, serving as a defining boundary between Greene and Christian counties. This 2017 survey reveals the suburban interface of the southern Springfield metropolitan area, showcasing the rapid development around Nixa, Battlefield, and Fremont Hills. Despite the modern road grid, deep-rooted local history is preserved in small family and community burial grounds such as Bledsoe Memorial Cem, Payne Cem, and McConnell Cem. The terrain is marked by distinctive karst features like the Avin Sink and numerous natural springs, including Blue Spring and Young Spring. Historical river crossings and industrial sites are noted by the Nelson Mill Bridge and Frazier Bridge, while the southern reaches descend into more secluded areas like McCafferty Hollow and Turkey Hollow near the banks of Finley Creek.
