About this map

Canandaigua serves as the regional hub in this 2016 survey, situated at the northern reaches of Canandaigua Lake. The landscape transition from the urban grid of the city to the agricultural and residential fringes is marked by several long-standing local landmarks, including the Canandaigua Airport and the prominent Arsenal Hill. The area is notably dense with burial grounds that offer significant genealogical value, from the large Woodlawn Cem and Pioneer Cem within the city limits to rural family or community sites like Hathaway Cem, Tilton Cem, and the uniquely named Power Cem near Hathaway Corners.

Hydrological features such as Sucker Brook, Padelford Brook, and the Canandaigua Outlet define the drainage patterns across the terrain, which includes the heights of Buttermilk Hill and Young Hill. Small settlements and named crossroads like Mertensia, Padelford, and East Victor provide evidence of earlier regional development and transit corridors that continue to shape the Ontario County countryside.
