Via Middle Island Creek and the Ohio River, it is part of the watershed of the Mississippi River, draining an area of {{convert|37.3|sqmi|km2}}[4] in a rural region on the unglaciated portion of the Allegheny Plateau. McKim Creek rises just east of McKim in southwestern Tyler County and flows generally westward into eastern Pleasants County, through the unincorporated communities of McKim and Plum Run in Tyler County and Hebron in Pleasants County. It flows into Middle Island Creek at the community of Union Mills, {{convert|4.6|mi|km}} upstream[5] of Middle Island Creek's confluence with the Ohio River in St. Marys.[6] According to the Geographic Names Information System, McKim Creek has also been known historically by the name "McKim's Fork."[1] See also
