About this map

Perry Lake dominates the landscape of Jefferson County in this 2010 topographic survey, its branching fingers reaching into the surrounding prairie. The town of Ozawkie sits at the north end of the reservoir, serving as a hub for a network of residential developments and recreation areas that have grown up along the shoreline. These communities, including Lakeside Village, Hilldale, and Indian Ridge, illustrate the mid-to-late 20th-century transformation of the area into a premier water-based recreation destination.

For local history and genealogy, the map identifies the Olive Branch Cemetery and the centrally located Ozawkie Post Office. Beyond the modern residential clusters, the terrain features traditional landmarks like Round Mound and various watercourses such as Slough Creek and Little Slough Creek. Educational and recreational heritage is represented by Camp Jayhawk and the Rock Creek Marina, highlighting the dual nature of the region as both a permanent settlement and a seasonal retreat.
