2015 Map of Shelbyville

About this map

Shelbyville serves as the central hub of this Central Illinois landscape, where the town grid meets the western shores of Lake Shelbyville. The map illustrates a transition from the structured residential blocks of the county seat to the sprawling water body and the winding course of the Kaskaskia River to the south. Historically significant burial sites are scattered throughout the rural hinterlands, including Bethel Cem, Smith Cem, and Moyer Cem near the lake’s edge, as well as Westervelt to the northwest. Smaller settlements like Rennerville and Duvall punctuate the agricultural landscape, which is defined by a dense network of township roads and drainage systems like Robinson Cr and Opossum Cr. The presence of both Shelby County Airport and Williamson Airport indicates the regional importance of general aviation in this part of Shelby County.
