About this map

The Cedar River serves as the central artery for this portion of Black Hawk County, weaving southeast from the urban center of Waterloo through Evansdale and Elk Run Heights. The landscape transitions from the dense street grids of the city to the more open agricultural reaches around Orange and Washburn. This 2018 survey reveals a high concentration of burial grounds, including Calvary Cem, Elmwood Cem, and the specialized Muslim Cem, reflecting the diverse community history of the region.

Industrial and residential development is tightly clustered along the river valley and primary transit corridors like University Ave and Westfield Ave. Farther south, the terrain opens into the well-defined sections of Township 88 North, where Sink Cr and Miller Cr drain the farmland. The presence of the Black Hawk County Cem and Orange Township Cem provides significant points of interest for genealogists tracing local families in the outlying rural townships.
