2018 Map of Norwalk

About this map

Norwalk and the surrounding Warren County landscape are defined by the convergence of the N River and Middle River valleys. This 2018 survey documents a region of growing residential development bordering the southern edge of West Des Moines and Des Moines. The map maintains a clear record of local heritage sites, including the Webb Cem and Linn Grove Cem, which serve as anchor points for family historians. Smaller rural settlements like Greenbush, Spring Hill, and Prole are still distinct entities, even as larger infrastructure like Co Rd R63 and suburban expansions in Lakewood reshape the terrain. The presence of numerous small water bodies, such as Bull Run and Felters Br, highlights the undulating creek-bed geography that has influenced road patterns and farm placement across the townships since early settlement.
