2012 Map of Norton

About this map

Norton serves as the central hub of this northern Kansas landscape, where the confluence of several watercourses defines the local geography. The city is flanked by Robinson Cr and Prairie Dog Cr, which flow through the rolling plains toward the southwest. Just outside the city limits, the landscape shifts toward recreation and conservation at Prairie Dog State Park, which surrounds the sprawling Keith Sebelius Lake. This reservoir is a primary landmark, supporting numerous designated areas such as the Meadowlark Campground and Shady Rest Campground. To the south of the water, the Cope Cem offers a point of interest for genealogists tracing local families. The map also highlights the infrastructure of the early 21st century, including the Norton Municipal Airport and localized features like the Elmwood Park Speedway and the Norton County Equine Facility.
