Bangor serves as a central hub on this 1927 survey, situated at the confluence of rail and water where the Pere Marquette RR crosses the South Fork Black River near the Mill Pond. The landscape of northern Van Buren and southern Allegan counties is defined by a dense network of country schools, many named for local families or landmarks, such as the Garden of Eden Sch, Evergreen Glade Sch, and Maple Grove Sch. These school districts, spaced every few miles, reveal the high population density of this fruit-belt region before the consolidation of rural education.
