Indian Creek (Blue River tributary)

Indian Creek is a stream in Johnson County, Kansas and Jackson County, Missouri.[1] It is a tributary of the Blue River.

Indian Creek was named for the Indians who once passed through the area.[2] As of 2019, Indian Creek had been chronically flooded by Turkey Creek, which was studied by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.[3]
