2013 Map of Yale

About this map

The town of Yale serves as a primary anchor in this Guthrie County landscape, where the local street grid including S St and Lincoln St meets the rural section lines. To the north, the small settlements of Jamaica and Herndon are connected by a network of agricultural roads and drainage patterns defined by Greenbrier Cr. The territory is etched by several small waterways, most notably the winding course of Mosquito Cr and the shorter reach of Bay Br, which drain the surrounding farmland. The arrangement of the town sites, particularly with Jamaica's street names like Railway St, suggests the legacy of the regional transit corridor that historically linked these prairie communities. This survey provides a clear view of the modern road system, from primary routes like 120th St to the numerous lettered and numbered avenues that partition the Iowa countryside.
