About this map

The North Raccoon River meanders across this rural landscape in Buena Vista County, defining the primary drainage pattern of the region. This 2010 topographic survey illustrates the enduring agricultural layout of the Iowa plains, where the Section Land Survey system is reflected in the rigid grid of numbered roads. Major thoroughfares such as Hwy 10 bisect the territory, connecting the scattered farmsteads linked by a network of local routes including 150th Ave and 200th Ave. The terrain is characterized by subtle elevation changes near the riverbanks and a high concentration of section-line roads like 450th St and 520th St, which trace the property boundaries established over a century ago. This map serves as a clear record of the modern rural infrastructure and land use in the heart of the Corn Belt.
