About this map

Worthington occupies the northern edge of this Nobles County landscape, centered around the vital waters of Okabena Lake. The town's early 21st-century footprint is anchored by the Worthington Post Office and several local landmarks including Saint Marys Cemetery and the Worthington Township Cemetery. Outside the municipal center, the terrain is defined by a series of significant water bodies, most notably the sprawling Ocheda Lake and the smaller Lake Bella to the southwest.

A network of rural routes, including County Hwy-35 and numerous named avenues like Read Ave and Quine Ave, grid the agricultural land between these lakes. Near the southern border, the Stateline Structure Dam and the Indian Lake Baptist Cemetery reflect the long-standing community infrastructure of this prairie region. The presence of both the Okabena Lake Dam and the state-line features indicates a landscape carefully managed for water and transit at the Iowa-Minnesota border.
