About this map

Compass Lake Hills is a prominent residential development in the northern portion of this Jackson and Calhoun County landscape, marked by a dense grid of curvilinear roads that contrast with the more traditional rural layout to the south. The terrain is characterized by a high concentration of karst-like sinkhole ponds and drainage basins, including the expansive Seventeenmile Pond, Porter Pond, and the secluded Mossy Pond. Small rural communities such as Melvin and Flanders center around crossroads and local landmarks like Pippin and Briar Head. Local history is anchored by the Camps Head Ch and the Pippin Cem, reflecting the early settlement patterns of this Florida Panhandle region. The landscape is also defined by its watercourses, with Econfina Creek and Tenmile Creek cutting through the vegetation-dense lowlands, while industrial activity is indicated by a Claypit near the central section.
