2020 Map of Chunchula

About this map

Chunchula and Gulfcrest anchor this portion of Mobile County, where the coastal plain is dissected by a dense network of creek systems flowing toward the Gulf. The landscape is defined by the headwaters and branches of Chickasaw Cr and Bayou Sara, with significant watercourses like Silver Cr and Beaver Pond Cr carving through the terrain. Evidence of the area's local history and community structure is found in the placement of the Gulfcrest Cem and Turnerville Cem, alongside longstanding transportation routes such as the Old Citronelle Hwy and Chunchula Georgetown Rd. While the southeastern corner touches the edge of Saraland, the map primarily illustrates a rural and residential pattern of development structured around family-named roads like Pesleys Ponderosa and Rudolph Gallasch Rd. Local landmarks like Duboise Lake provide insight into the drainage and water management of this humid Alabama corridor.
