Stewartville serves as the primary hub of this 2010 landscape, where the Stewartville Dam controls the waters of the North Branch Root River to form Lake Florence. The area is defined by a deep-rooted network of rural settlements and agricultural land, reaching from Pleasant Grove in the northeast down toward Racine and Hamilton in the south. Genealogists and local historians will find several well-documented burial grounds, including the Saint Bernard Cemetery, Woodlawn Cemetery, and the Hamilton Congregational Cemetery. The drainage of the land is marked by numerous winding waterways such as Kedron Creek and Bear Creek, which cut across a grid of secondary roads like County Hwy-2 and 30th Ave SE. The presence of dedicated post offices in both Stewartville and Racine highlights these towns as enduring centers of community life in Olmsted County.
