1997 Map of Richmond South

About this map

The southern periphery of Richmond dominates the northern edge of this Madison County survey, centering on the sprawling campus of Eastern Kentucky University. The landscape shifts from the academic and residential blocks of the city into a patchwork of rural hamlets and agricultural lands to the south. Distinctive settlements such as Paytontown, Buggytown, and Duncanon appear along the rolling drainage of Silver Creek. To the east, the massive footprint of the Lexington-Blue Grass Army Depot marks a significant military presence, bordered by the CSX Transportation rail line.
