2013 Map of Seymour West

About this map

Promise City and the western edge of Seymour anchor this survey of southern Iowa's rolling agricultural landscape. The area is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Locust Cr and its western fork, which drain southward across the Wayne County line. Small rural settlements and named locales like Granger, Kirkwood, and Jewell are connected by a grid of county roads such as Co Hwy-J46 and Jubilee Rd. This map captures the region's late-twentieth-century infrastructure, characterized by dispersed farmsteads and municipal water management projects. To the east, the Seymour City Reservoir serves as a vital hydrological feature, while the headwaters of Shoal Cr and Cooper Cr carve through the eastern sections of the quadrangle. The map reflects a classic Midwestern pattern of small-town centers linked by section-line roads and seasonal creeks.
