Perrysville sits prominently on the western bank of the Wabash River, appearing in this 2010 survey as a focal point for the surrounding agricultural landscape. The town is flanked by smaller settlements like Gessie to the northwest and Flat Iron to the west, linked by a network of rural county roads. This area of Vermillion County is deeply etched with watercourses, including Jordan Creek, Jericho Creek, and Spring Creek, which feed into the larger river system. Local genealogy and land use are well represented by several burial grounds, such as Chenoweth Cemetery and Lower Mound Cemetery. Economic and recreational features are evident in the south, where Coffing Brothers Lake and the associated Coffing Brothers Dam appear alongside Coal Creek. Transportation infrastructure is further noted by the presence of Highland Airport, located just north of the Flat Iron community.
