About this map

Rippey serves as the central hub of this agricultural landscape in Greene County, where the grid of rural section roads meets the diagonal path of Highway 144. This 2013 survey highlights a terrain defined by subtle drainage patterns, including Snake Cr and Parrish Br, which feed into the larger watershed. North of the town center, the Snake Creek State Game Management Area provides a preserved pocket of natural habitat amidst the surrounding farmland.

To the southeast, the small settlements of Angus and Surry sit near the borders of the quadrangle, connected by the same road network that links these isolated communities. The map captures the precision of modern Iowa land division, from the small-town residential streets of Percival St and W Hatton St to the expansive stretches of A Ave and B Ave that reach toward water bodies like Jim Cr and Frog Cr.
