    Know Your Land

    Local Conditions in Richland County

    Soil

    Mixed types. Northern areas have clay loams of the glaciated lake plain. Southern areas transition to silt loams with better drainage. The soil transition roughly follows Route 30.

    Terrain

    Gently rolling in the north, more hilly in the south. Clear Fork and Black Fork valleys create significant topography. Pleasant Hill and Malabar Farm area have notable hills and ravines.

    Vegetation

    Mixed hardwood — oak, maple, hickory, beech. Significant ash mortality from emerald ash borer creates standing dead timber (safety hazard). Southern areas have denser, more varied forest.
