2022 Map of Rochester

About this map

The city of Rochester sits at the convergence of several waterways, including the South Fork Zumbro River, Cascade Cr, and Silver Cr. This modern geographic study reveals a dense urban center characterized by major institutions like the Mayo Graduate School and the Olmsted County Government Center. The transition from the urban core to the surrounding hills is marked by numerous historic burial grounds, such as Oakwood Downtown Cem and the Rochester State Hospital Cem. To the north, smaller settlements like Ringe and Hadley Valley occupy the higher terrain, where the landscape is carved by the Zumbro River Trl. The survey details a highly developed infrastructure of county highways and residential developments that expand outward from the river valleys into the adjacent townships.
