2013 Map of Norwalk

About this map

Norwalk serves as the primary hub of this 2013 survey, showing the residential expansion and suburban layout south of Des Moines. The landscape is defined by the winding course of the N River and Middle River, which cut through the agricultural surroundings. Significant recreational development is evident in the cluster of golf courses, including The Legacy Golf Course and Countryside Golf Course, indicating the area's transition toward a suburban commuter corridor. Smaller, established settlements like Spring Hill, Greenbush, and Prole anchor the southern and eastern portions of the map. In the north, the community of Lakewood is centered around the waters of Lake Colechester. The mapping of numerous local routes such as Beardsley Trl and Dubuque Trl provides a clear view of how traditional rural trails have been integrated into a modern street grid.
