==Geography== According to the 2010 census, the county has a total area of {{convert|215.16|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|215.01|sqmi}} (or 99.93%) is land and {{convert|0.15|sqmi}} (or 0.07%) is water.<ref name="census-density"/> It is almost 14 mi. wide at its widest east–west span, and 19 mi. long (through Posey township). The county is located in the northern portion of the Whitewater River Valley running south and southeasterly from Wayne County to Cincinnati on the Ohio River. The only major waterway in the county is the West Fork of the Whitewater River running north to south through the center of the county. There is only a single tiny (15 acre) lake in the county, Manlove's Lake in Posey Township. The county is mostly flat with low, rolling hills. The county (and all of Indiana) is part of the Eastern (U.S.) Broadleaf Forest biome dominated by deciduous trees including over 175 native species of oak. Most of the land use is farms (>80%), vacant woodland and pasture. The most common crops are corn and soybeans. ===Adjacent counties=== * [[Henry County, Indiana|Henry County]] (north) * [[Wayne County, Indiana|Wayne County]] (northeast) * [[Union County, Indiana|Union County]] (east) * [[Franklin County, Indiana|Franklin County]] (south) * [[Rush County, Indiana|Rush County]] (west)
