About this map

Leonardville and the town of Riley serve as the primary population centers in this section of Riley County, Kansas. The landscape is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including the headwaters of Wildcat Creek and the meandering Little Arkansas Creek, which carve through the agricultural terrain. Local aviation is represented by two distinct facilities: the Riley Airport situated east of town and the private Walter Stol Strip further north.

Genealogists and local historians can locate established burial grounds such as Riley Cemetery and Grandview Cemetery, which anchor the rural communities. The road system is a mix of established corridors like Tuttle Creek Blvd and secondary routes such as Fairview Church Rd and Crooked Cedar Ln. This map highlights a transition between small-town residential grids and the organized section lines of the surrounding Kansas farmland.
