The prairie landscape of Nobles County is defined here by the Coteau des Prairies, a high plateau that rises above the surrounding plains. In the southern portion of the sheet, the city of Worthington shows significant modern development, with a street grid extending toward the Worthington Municipal Airport. The infrastructure reflects a shift toward specialized industry and commerce, evidenced by thoroughfares like Bioscience Dr, Industrial Ln, and Oxford St. Drainage for this agricultural and urban corridor is provided by the winding paths of Okabena Cr and Elk Cr, which cut through the township sections. This 2016 survey provides a clear view of how the regional economy and transportation network have integrated with the natural landforms of southwestern Minnesota.
