2015 Map of Brandon

About this map

Sixmile Creek and the Alafia River define the drainage of this suburbanizing landscape east of Tampa, captured during a period of rapid residential expansion. The map detail reflects a dense network of neighborhoods with names such as Buffalo Avenue Farms, Eureka Homes, and Raven Oaks, which replaced the agricultural tracts that once dominated Hillsborough County. Significant water bodies like Mango Lake, Lake Weeks, and Gornto Lake are integrated into the neighborhood layouts, while the CSX railroad and the Selmon Expy provide the primary transit corridors through the area.
