To the east are single-family houses <br />zoned “R” Residential in the County. To the South is agricultural land zoned “PUD” <br />Planned Unit Development in the city and single-family houses in the County zoned “R” <br />Residential. To the west is a cemetery and agricultural land zoned “R” Residential.
