2015 Map of Astor

About this map

The Saint Johns River carves a winding path through this landscape, serving as a vital waterway near the transition into the southern reaches of Lake George. This 2015 survey reveals the established settlements of Astor and Astor Park, where residential development is concentrated along the riverbanks and the corridor of SR-40. To the west, the protected wilderness of the Ocala National Forest dominates the terrain, dotted with numerous water bodies such as Schimmerhorn Lake and Wildcat Lake. The map preserves the locations of several smaller settlements and landings, including Manhatten and Bluffton, alongside local landmarks like Morrison Bluff and the Astor Park Cem. This riverine environment, marked by features like the Volusia Bar and Blue Creek Island, illustrates the enduring relationship between the community and the complex network of creeks and marshes that define the region's geography.
