The Salamonie River meanders through the heart of Jay County, anchoring the settlement of Portland. This detailed 2016 survey illustrates the organized grid of the county seat alongside smaller surrounding hamlets such as Antiville, Pleasant Ridge, and Liber. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of drainage infrastructure, including Cartwright Ditch and McKinsey Ditch, which manage the water levels of the agricultural land surrounding the city. To the south, the Little Salamonie River and Buckeye Cr join the river system near the community of College Corner. For those researching local history or genealogy, the map identifies several significant burial grounds, including Green Park Cem, Baue Cem, and Liber Cem. Transport and infrastructure are represented by the Portland Municipal Airport and a dense network of numbered county roads and named city streets like W Votaw St and E Main St.
