About this map

The Little Tallapoosa River winds through this West Georgia landscape, anchoring a region defined by the growth of Carrollton and its surrounding residential developments. By the mid-2010s, the area shows a clear transition from its urban center to suburban communities like Holly Heights, Leisure Heights, and South Gate. The map provides a detailed view of the institutional foundations of the city, prominently featuring the University of West Georgia and the Carrollton City Cemetery.

Beyond the city limits, the terrain rises toward Oak Mountain, while the landscape is dotted with several water bodies including Lake Carroll, Smith Lake, and Richards Lake. Genealogists and local historians will find several rural burial grounds preserved in the landscape, such as Shiloh Cemetery near Hickory Heights and the Whooping Creek Cemetery in the southern reaches. Small airstrips like Falcons Aerie Airport and C&R Farm Airport highlight the local aviation infrastructure serving the county.
