2016 Map of Oshkosh NW

About this map

Lake Winneconne and the meandering Rat River define the low-lying geography of this portion of Winnebago County. The landscape is dotted with small unincorporated settlements and rural church centers, such as Winchester and Larsen, which serve as the primary social hubs for the surrounding agricultural community. Significant local-history value is found in the high density of burial grounds, including the Saint Johannes Evangelical Lutheran Cem and Grace Lutheran Cem, reflecting the early immigrant heritage of the region. The map highlights a transition from the marshy wetlands near Clarks Point to the more developed corridors near Allenville. Modern infrastructure like the Larson Airport sits alongside established rural routes, while the shoreline areas of Piacenza and Indian Shores indicate the lake's importance for local habitation and recreation within this well-watered Wisconsin terrain.
