2022 Map of Stafford NW

About this map

The northwest corner of St. John anchors this portion of Stafford County, where the transition from town lots to the sprawling agricultural grid of central Kansas is immediate. The landscape is defined by a rigorous network of section roads like Leesburg Rd and E Old Hwy 50, which provide access to the isolated homesteads and farmland that characterize the region. Vital community history is preserved in small, scattered locations such as the Leesburg Cem and Prairie Chapel Cem, which often stand as the only remaining markers of earlier rural congregations. To the east, the Stafford Municipal Airport represents a modern point of infrastructure. Natural drainage is subtle, with the intermittent courses of Peace Cr and Dooleyville Cr weaving through the sections, highlighting the reliance on local topography for water management in this prairie environment.
