2013 Map of Whitehall

About this map

Ellettsville serves as the primary population hub in this Monroe County landscape, where the urban grid gives way to a network of rural settlements and winding stream valleys. The terrain is defined by significant ridges and deep hollows, such as Louden Ridge and Green Ham Hollow, which dictate the paths of local roads and watercourses. Small community centers like Whitehall and Hendricksville are positioned at key intersections, connected by routes such as State Ferry Rd, suggesting a historical reliance on these overland paths between the drainage basins of Richland Cr and Raccoon Cr. The southern portion of the area is particularly dissected, featuring several named depressions including Blakeman Hollow and Coon Hollow near the banks of Little Richland Cr. This 2013 survey illustrates the persistent rural character of the region, where individual property access via private lanes and county roads remains the standard outside of the main Ellettsville corridor.
