2011 Map of Warrensburg East

About this map

The University of Central Missouri anchor the southwestern portion of this 2011 survey, where the expanding street grid of Warrensburg meets the agricultural landscapes of Johnson County. This area is defined by a dense network of country roads, such as NE State Hwy E and NE 600th Rd, which navigate a complex drainage system led by the Blackwater River. The river's meandering course is joined by numerous tributaries including Bear Creek, Post Oak Creek, and Blackjack Creek, creating a landscape of gentle relief and riparian corridors. Scattered throughout these rural sections are several smaller burial grounds, such as Liberty Cemetery and Granger Cemetery, which serve as vital touchstones for local family histories. The transition from the academic and municipal center of Warrensburg to the outlying farmsteads is marked by the presence of family-named landmarks like Maxwell Cemetery and Mayes Cemetery.
