Knox Country contains recreations of the real-world [[Muldraugh]], [[West Point]], [[Dixie]], [[March Ridge]], [[Fallas Lake]] (formerly known as Ekron), [[Valley Station]], and [[Louisville]].

The map has been remade completely for [[Version_history|RC2.9]], since the streaming system enables a much larger, continuous world. Currently the map consists of an almost finished town of Muldraugh covering 8 map cells, whereas the 0.2.0 version map fit in one cell. The map is heavily inspired by the [https://maps.google.com/maps?q=Muldraugh,+KY,+United+States&hl=en&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=56.637293,114.169922&oq=Muld&t=h&hnear=Muldraugh,+Meade,+Kentucky&z=14 town of Muldraugh in real life]. There is also a vast, but almost completely unfinished world around it. Future locations will include vast forests surrounding the town, highways off the town, farm houses near the outskirts of town, and even more cities.
