About this map

Waukesha sits at a critical hydrological and transportation junction where the Fox River and Pewaukee River converge, anchored by the industrial legacy of the Saratoga Mill Dam. This 2010 survey illustrates the complex suburban expansion across eastern Wisconsin, showing how once-distinct settlements like Duplainville, Marcy, and Goerkes Corner have been integrated into the modern metropolitan corridor.

The landscape is punctuated by numerous historic burial grounds, including Saint Dominics Catholic Cemetery and Pilgrims Rest Cemetery, which serve as permanent markers of the area's early pioneer and denominational history. Significant infrastructure such as the Waukesha County Airport and the Waukesha County Fairgrounds reflect the city's role as a regional hub, while the presence of the Sussex Wastewater Treatment Facility and the Brookfield Post Office on the margins demonstrates the interlocking growth of neighboring municipalities in the early 21st century.
