About this map

Asheboro serves as the central hub of this 2011 survey, showing a landscape defined by significant residential expansion and the complex geography of the Uwharrie Mountains foothills. The city is surrounded by numerous planned developments such as Westridge, Laurel Wood Hills, and North Shore, illustrating the 21st-century growth of this Piedmont region. In the south, the terrain becomes more prominent with named ridges and peaks like Purgatory Mountain, Middle Mountain, and Stack Rock Mountain, while Schoolhouse Ridge hints at the local social history of the rural districts near Ulah.

Water management and recreation are evident through the presence of several small reservoirs, including Back Creek Lake, Farlows Lake, and Cedarwood Lake. Essential community infrastructure is well-marked, from the Asheboro Post Office to the Hinshaw Airport and Oak Lawn Cemetery. The map also captures the agricultural legacy of the area at Winningham Farm, situated amidst the drainage basins of Richland Creek and Gabriels Creek.
