About this map

The city of Xenia serves as a central hub for Greene County, where a dense network of roads and historical institutions converge. To the northeast, the academic corridor of Wilberforce is prominently featured, containing the campuses of Wilberforce University, Central State University, and the Payne Theological Seminary. This area is further anchored by the Charles Young Buffalo Soldiers National Monument, marking a significant site of African American military history and heritage.

Hydrological features like the Little Miami River and Massies Creek shape the landscape north of the city, while Shawnee Run and Glady Run flow through the southern reaches. Local history researchers can identify numerous burial grounds across the quadrangle, from the large Woodland Cemetery near the city center to smaller sites like Morgan Cemetery and McDaniel Cemetery. The presence of the North Country National Scenic Trail (Buckeye Trail) winding through Oldtown highlights the region's intersection of natural recreation and early settlement patterns.
