2015 Map of Yates Center

About this map

Yates Center serves as the primary hub of this Woodson County landscape, showing a dense grid of streets including E Madison St and S Main St. The surrounding countryside is defined by its drainages, where the appropriately named School Creek and Bloody Run carve through the agricultural terrain. Small rural crossroads and rail-adjacent points like Durand and Hasty offer localized points of interest for those studying the distribution of early 21st-century settlements. To the northwest, the Dutro Cem provides a specific site of genealogical interest. The map captures a transition where the urban organization of the county seat meets the expansive network of range roads and creeks, including North Owl Creek and Cherry Creek, illustrating the enduring spatial layout of eastern Kansas.
