2013 Map of Stanton

About this map

Stanton serves as the primary hub of this Montgomery County landscape, with its residential grid defined by streets like Frankfort St and Thorn St. The surrounding countryside is defined by the branching waters of the Tarkio River and its various tributaries, including Little Tarkio Cr and E Tarkio Cr. A significant natural landmark, Viking Lake, provides a large body of water in the northeastern portion of the quadrangle, while Erickson Prairie offers a look at the preserved open lands of the region. The map also captures the transition at the southern boundary along Montgomery-Page St, where the topography leads toward the W Nodaway River valley. This 2013 survey illustrates the modern layout of rural Iowa, where a system of lettered avenues like O Ave and S Ave intersect with numbered section roads to form a precise agricultural and residential framework.
