About this map

The suburban development of southwest Wake County is captured here in the early 2020s, showing the rapid expansion of Apex, Cary, and Holly Springs. The landscape is a dense network of residential subdivisions and major transit corridors like NC 540 and Us 64, yet it retains traces of its rural past. Older community nodes like Feltonville and Piney Plains sit alongside modern landmarks such as the Saint Andrew the Apostle Catholic Church Columbarium.

Hydrological features provide a natural framework for the modern growth, with Middle Creek and Swift Creek winding through the terrain. To the south, Fuquay-Varina anchors the map near Bass Lake, while the long-standing Apex Cemetery offers a focal point for local genealogical interest. The transition from Piedmont woodlands to a highly connected tech-hub corridor is evident in the street patterns surrounding R E Earp Pond and Bagwell Pond.
