Olney serves as the primary hub of this Richland County landscape, centered on a dense grid of streets and residential blocks. The town's institutional character is anchored by Olney Central College on the north side, while its history is preserved in numerous burial grounds like Haven Hill Cem, Saint Josephs Cem, and Maple Dale Cem. To the south, the settlement of Calhoun and the small locality of Elbow mark the rural transition where agricultural land is dissected by an intricate drainage network. Significant water features including the Fox River, Little Fox Cr, and Turkey Cr define the topography, with Illinois No-Name-Number 2037 Reservoir providing a substantial body of water to the west. This modern survey reflects the enduring pattern of Midwestern section-line roads and dispersed rural landmarks like Liberty Lawn Cem and Richland Cem.
