The industrial and agricultural corridors of Gaston and Cleveland counties are anchored here by Cherryville and Fallston. This 2010 survey details a landscape where old industry like Beam Mill on Long Branch sits alongside residential developments such as Hidden Valley. The area is defined by a dense network of creeks, including Buffalo Creek, Indian Creek, and Mill Creek, which historically supported the region's rural economy. Smaller, distinct communities like Baker Crossroads, Flay, and Dellview are connected by a web of family-named roads including Wehunt Brown Rd and Houser Farm Rd. Significant water features like Cedar Lake Dam and Hendricks Lake punctuate the northern Piedmont terrain, providing insight into local land use and hydrology during the early 21st century.
