2019 Map of Apex

About this map

Apex and Cary anchor the northern reaches of this Wake County survey, documenting a landscape where suburban expansion meets an intricate system of Piedmont waterways. The map traces the dense network of modern residential developments and transit corridors that have reshaped the area around Feltonville and Holly Springs. Despite the rapid growth, the natural hydrology remains a defining characteristic, with Middle Creek, Swift Creek, and Dutchmans Br weaving through the terrain. Significant local landmarks include the Apex Cem and the Saint Andrew the Apostle Catholic Church Columbarium, providing valuable points of reference for genealogists and local historians. To the south, Fuquay-Varina marks the edge of the sheet near Bass Lake, illustrating the continued southward reach of the Research Triangle's outer ring at the end of the second decade of the 21st century.
