2010 Map of Prairie City

About this map

Prairie City serves as the primary hub in this portion of Jasper County, situated at the intersection of local routes and the State Hwy 163 Bus corridor. The landscape is defined by its deep agricultural grid and an extensive network of waterways, including Squaw Creek, Calhoun Creek, and Prairie Creek. For those exploring the genealogy of the region, the map is remarkably dense with burial grounds, ranging from Mound Prairie Cemetery in the north to the Ritter-Worth Cemetery in the south. Further east, the small settlement of Fairmont marks a key point along the highway, while landmarks like the Prairie City Post Office anchor the town center. The detailed surveying of secondary roads like S 76th Ave W and Hwy F70 W provides a clear view of the rural homestead distribution during the early 21st century.
