2015 Map of Bluefield

About this map

Bluefield occupies a landscape defined by the transition from agricultural groves to the expansive wetlands of the Allapattah Flats. This interior Florida terrain is marked by a network of drainage features, including the County Line Canal which separates St. Lucie and Martin Counties, and the Myrtle Slough to the south. The area reflects a specific pattern of rural development, where residential lanes with names like SW Buckskin Ave, SW Deer Run, and SW Quail Covey Ave meet the industrial scale of the citrus industry. The presence of the Southern Fruit Groves Airport underscore the significance of large-scale fruit production in this corridor. Hammocks such as Boar Hammock and Myer Hammock emerge as higher-ground landmarks amidst the low-lying flats, illustrating the historical importance of these topographical rises for navigation and localized land use in the Everglades ecosystem.
