About this map

Webb City and Carterville sit at the center of this Missouri landscape, illustrating the dense interconnected development of the Tri-State mining region as it appeared in the early 21st century. The map shows the transition from the urbanized streets of Joplin to the smaller outlying mining towns like Oronogo, Alba, and Purcell. These communities are linked by an intricate grid of roads such as Old 66 Blvd, reflecting the historic transportation corridors of the Ozark Plateau.

Several historic burial sites, including the Carter-Laxton Cem and Friends Cem, are preserved among the residential developments and rural outskirts. The northern reaches are defined by the winding course of the Spring River and Center Creek, which contrast with the industrial expansion represented by the Joplin Regional Airport. The topography reveals the complex drainage patterns of Bens Br and Buck Br across the Joplin-Webb City corridor.
