About this map

The sprawling eastern landscape of the Fort Knox Military Reservation defines much of this Hardin County survey, showing the interface between federal land and the growing communities of Radcliff and Vine Grove. The residential expansion of the early 1990s is evident in developments like Dietz Acres and the concentrated streets of Rogersville. Running through the heart of the region, the Illinois Central Gulf railroad serves as a primary industrial spine, passing through Vine Grove Junction and near the North Hardin Tower.

Local history is preserved in numerous scattered landmarks, from St Brigid Ch and Stovall Ch to several family-named burial grounds like Cowley Cem and Shelton Cem. Water features such as Sanders Spring Reservoir and Brushy Fork drain the undulating terrain toward Otter Creek, while the presence of the McKendree College and various schools illustrates the established social fabric of this Kentucky corridor just south of the Ohio River valley.
