2016 Map of Angola

About this map

Angola and the surrounding Erie County lakeside communities are defined by their position along the eastern shores of Lake Erie. This 2016 survey documents the residential and recreational density that characterizes the area, from the inland center of Angola to the beachside developments at Angola on the Lake and Grandview Bay. The landscape is etched by a series of waterways, most notably Big Sister Creek and Little Sister Cr, which flow toward the lakefront. Long-standing local landmarks like Jerusalem Corners and the adjacent Jerusalem Corners Cem provide genealogical anchor points for researchers, while the CSX rail line serves as a reminder of the corridor's transport history. The transition from established town centers like Evans Center to seasonal or youth-focused sites such as Camp Pioneer and Saint Vincent de Paul Camp reflects the region's dual identity as both a suburban residence and a traditional lakeside retreat.
