Across 595 square miles, under one square mile of Crawford County maps onto soluble rock. With about 62,258 residents (105 per square mile), homes are spread across towns and farmland, and a mapped unit may or may not reach the developed parts. The figures come from 264 map points about 1.5 miles apart, so a pocket smaller than that can be missed or overstated.
