==Geography== The [[Wabash River]] flows southwestward from Cass County through the upper part of Carroll County, exiting into Tippecanoe County. The [[Tippecanoe River]] flows southward through the county's upper west edge, also exiting into Tippecanoe County, where it merges with the Wabash shortly after leaving Carroll County's border. [[Wildcat Creek (Indiana)|Wildcat Creek]] drains the south part of Carroll County, flowing westward into Tippecanoe to merge with the Wabash there. The terrain of Carroll County was heavily wooded at the start, but now the flat areas are cleared and devoted to agriculture or urban development, with only the drainage areas still wooded.<ref>[https://www.google.com/maps/place/Carroll+County,+IN/@40.5684613,-86.6336148,28274m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m5!3m4!1s0x8813767d7cce12a1:0x7712b15304cea7bc!8m2!3d40.542415!4d-86.5400674 ''Carroll County IN'' (Google Maps, accessed 21 September 2020)]</ref> The highest point on the terrain ({{convert|830|ft|m|abbr=off|disp=x|/|sp=us}} ASL) is the county's SE corner.<ref>[https://www.peakbagger.com/peak.aspx?pid=22952 ''Carroll County High Point, Indiana'' (PeakBagger.com, accessed 21 September 2020)]</ref> According to the 2010 census, the county has a total area of {{convert|375.02|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|372.22|sqmi}} (or 99.25%) is land and {{convert|2.80|sqmi}} (or 0.75%) is water.<ref name=DC/> ===Adjacent counties=== {{div col|colwidth=35em}} * [[Cass County, Indiana|Cass County]] β northeast * [[Howard County, Indiana|Howard County]] β east * [[Clinton County, Indiana|Clinton County]] β south * [[Tippecanoe County, Indiana|Tippecanoe County]] β southwest * [[White County, Indiana|White County]] β northwest {{div col end}} ===City=== * [[Delphi, Indiana|Delphi]] (county seat) ===Towns=== * [[Burlington, Indiana|Burlington]] * [[Camden, Indiana|Camden]] * [[Flora, Indiana|Flora]] * [[Yeoman, Indiana|Yeoman]] ===Unincorporated communities=== {{div col|colwidth=30em}} * [[Adams Mill, Indiana|Adams Mill]] * [[Bringhurst, Indiana|Bringhurst]] * [[Burrows, Indiana|Burrows]] * [[Carrollton, Carroll County, Indiana|Carrollton]] * [[Cutler, Indiana|Cutler]] * [[Deer Creek, Carroll County, Indiana|Deer Creek]] * [[Lexington, Carroll County, Indiana|Lexington]] * [[Lockport, Indiana|Lockport]] * [[Ockley, Indiana|Ockley]] * [[Owasco, Indiana|Owasco]] * [[Patton, Indiana|Patton]] * [[Pittsburg, Indiana|Pittsburg]] * [[Prince William, Indiana|Prince William]] * [[Pyrmont, Indiana|Pyrmont]] * [[Radnor, Indiana|Radnor]] * [[Rockfield, Indiana|Rockfield]] * [[Sharon, Indiana|Sharon]] * Terrace Bay * [[Wheeling, Carroll County, Indiana|Wheeling]] {{div col end}} ===Townships=== {{div col|colwidth=30em}} * [[Adams Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Adams]] * [[Burlington Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Burlington]] * [[Carrollton Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Carrollton]] * [[Clay Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Clay]] * [[Deer Creek Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Deer Creek]] * [[Democrat Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Democrat]] * [[Jackson Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Jackson]] * [[Jefferson Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Jefferson]] * [[Liberty Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Liberty]] * [[Madison Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Madison]] * [[Monroe Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Monroe]] * [[Rock Creek Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Rock Creek]] * [[Tippecanoe Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Tippecanoe]] * [[Washington Township, Carroll County, Indiana|Washington]] {{div col end}} ===Major highways=== {{div col|colwidth=35em}} * [[Image:US 421.svg|20px]] [[U.S. Route 421]] * [[Image:indiana 18.svg|20px]] [[Indiana State Road 18]] * [[Image:indiana 22.svg|20px]] [[Indiana State Road 22]] * [[Image:indiana 25.svg|20px]] [[Indiana State Road 25]] * [[Image:indiana 29.svg|20px]] [[Indiana State Road 29]] * [[Image:indiana 39.svg|20px]] [[Indiana State Road 39]] * [[Image:indiana 75.svg|20px]] [[Indiana State Road 75]] * [[Image:indiana 218.svg|20px]] [[Indiana State Road 218]] {{div col end}} === Railroads === * [[Norfolk Southern Railway]] * [[Winamac Southern Railway]]
