THE WHITEWATER LAND BRIEF
Land in the
Blufflands and Coulees setting.
Whitewater township has 35.2 square miles of land in Winona 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.

Whitewater and Winona County
Whitewater is associated with Winona 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.
Whitewater by land and water
The Census records 0.12 square miles of water within Whitewater, or 0.3% of its total area. It is 2.1 percentage points lower than the 2.4% recorded for Winona County. This is geographic context; waterfront status and usable land must be checked at the parcel.
For scale, Whitewater township has 18.2 times the land area of nearby Elba city (1.94 square miles). These areas describe boundaries, not comparable property prices.
