About this map

The Pine River meanders through the eastern edge of this landscape, defining the urban layout of Richland Center and its industrial corridors. This late-2010s survey illustrates a region characterized by deep valleys and prominent ridges, where agricultural roads like Dayton Ridge Rd and Tuckaway Valley Rd follow the natural contours of the land. The distribution of small rural cemeteries, including Dayton Corners Cem and Brown Cem, points to the long-standing family settlements that have anchored these ridges for generations.

To the southwest, the small community of Basswood sits near the head of Hoosier Hollow, surrounded by localized landmarks like John Hill and Pauls Hill. The map also preserves the memory of local education through corridor names like Crow Hill School Rd and Huth School Rd, marking where country schools once served the surrounding farmsteads. From the bottomlands of Ash Cr to the heights of Chicken Ridge, the sheet provides a detailed view of the modern rural and civic structure of Richland County.
