2023 Map of Zanesville West

About this map

The Licking River and Muskingum River converge at the heart of Zanesville, a historic river city defined by its industrial valley and institutional hubs. This modern mapping details the urban expansion from the Muskingum County Courthouse outward to the campuses of Zane State College and Ohio University - Zanesville. The terrain transitions from the riverfront flats of South Zanesville to the prominent elevations of Putnam Hill and Moxahala Ridge. Outside the core city, the landscape is dotted with ancestral markers, including Springfield Chapel Cem and Wesley Union Cem. To the northwest, the controlled waters of Dillon Lake and the settlement at Dillon Falls reflect the long-standing management of the Licking River watershed, while smaller hamlets like Darlington and Fairview maintain their distinct positions along the outlying hills.
