2017 Map of Charlotte

About this map

Charlotte serves as the focal point of this Eaton County landscape, displaying its grid of residential streets and arterial highways. The city is surrounded by a network of rural townships and smaller communities like Potterville to the northeast and the settlement of Millerburg to the west. This 2017 survey illustrates the area's transition from an urban center to the agricultural and natural drainage systems that define the Michigan interior. Significant watercourses such as Battle Cr and the Thornapple River weave through the terrain, while engineered features like the Mills and Prichard Drain highlight the region's managed hydrology. Local history and genealogy interests are anchored by the Maple Hill Cem near the city center and the Center Eaton Cem to the south. Transportation and recreation are well-represented by the Fitch H Beach Airport and the athletic spaces of Crippen Field.
