2012 Map of Arredondo

About this map

Arredondo and Kanapaha anchor this region of Alachua County, where the sprawling suburban growth of southwest Gainesville meets the distinctive karst topography of Florida's interior. The landscape is defined by vast natural depressions and wetlands, including Lake Kanapaha, the expansive Kanapaha Prairie, and Hickory Sink to the northwest. This 2012 survey captures a transition in land use, showing established residential neighborhoods like Riceland and Robinswood alongside significant industrial and civic infrastructure such as the Kanapaha Wastewater Treatment Facility and the Gainesville Speedway. The historic Kanapaha Presbyterian Church Cem remains a central landmark for local genealogy. To the south and west, the map transitions toward more agricultural and open lands near Peach Orchard and the northern edge of Levy Lake, illustrating the area's ongoing shift from rural homesteads to a more developed landscape.
