Westphalia anchors this section of Anderson County, situated at the intersection of a precise grid of rural routes. The town’s local history is anchored by Saint Teresa's Cem to the west and the Westphalia City Cem to the south, marking the community's established roots in the landscape. The surrounding terrain is defined by a dense network of watercourses, including Pottawatomie Cr and Cherry Cr, which carve through the agricultural blocks. Further east, Spencer Lake provides a localized landmark amidst the square-mile sections of T21S and T22S. This survey shows the modern persistence of the Public Land Survey System, where roads like NW 1500 RD and SW Arkansas RD strictly adhere to township and range boundaries, illustrating how early nineteenth-century land division continues to dictate the spatial organization of Kansas farming communities.
