Blufflands and Coulees setting.
Crooked Creek township has 31.2 square miles of land in Houston County. Its Census reference point is in Blufflands and Coulees, within Driftless Area.
Deeply cut valleys divide a bedrock plateau with windblown soil on many uplands. Glaciers had less influence here than in neighboring regions, leaving a distinctly hilly landscape.

Crooked Creek and Houston County
Crooked Creek is associated with Houston County in the Census boundary data. Start with the parcel’s tax bill to match the property to that jurisdiction, then confirm which government handles its land use.
Crooked Creek by land and water
The Census records 2.56 square miles of water within Crooked Creek, or 7.6% of its total area. It is 4.6 percentage points higher than the 2.9% recorded for Houston County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Crooked Creek township has 1.1 times the land area of nearby Jefferson township (29.3 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
