About this map

The western shore of Lake Michigan defines the landscape of this coastal Oconto County region, where the Oconto River empties into the bay. At the river's mouth, the city of Oconto serves as a hub for maritime activity, featuring the Municipal Wharf and Newport Marina tucked behind Ajax Island. The infrastructure here reveals a blend of industrial and municipal utility, including the Oconto Utility Commission Wastewater Treatment Facility situated near the waterfront.

Moving north along the shoreline, the terrain transitions into a more rural pattern of dispersed settlements such as Cullen and Wilcox. These areas are characterized by a network of drainage features like Thomas Slough and Labbies Slough, which navigate the low-lying coastal plain. Smaller communities like County Line sit further inland, connected by local routes such as Maple Grove School Rd and Swedetown Rd, reflecting the area's agricultural and residential development in the early 21st century.
