About this map

Norwood Young America is the central hub of this Carver County landscape, showing the convergence of local life around the established settlements of Young America and Norwood. The topography is defined by a dense network of small lakes and watercourses, including Eagle Lake, Barnes Lake, and the winding South Fork Crow River in the north. This 2010 survey highlights a significant concentration of local heritage sites, particularly cemeteries such as Saint Johns Cemetery, Mau Cemetery, and the Church of the Ascension Catholic Cemetery.

Transport and infrastructure are anchored by the intersection of County Hwy-33 and the southern highway corridor near the Norwood Post Office. To the north, the landscape transitions into agricultural plots marked by rural landmarks like the Mielke School and the private Ziermann Landing Strip. The presence of several smaller water bodies like Braunworth Lake and Young America Lake underscores the glacial character of the region, providing a detailed look at how these natural features influenced the placement of residential streets and farm boundaries.
