2019 Map of Climax

About this map

Greensboro suburbs and the rural landscape of southern Guilford County define this area, where established neighborhoods like Forest Oaks and Pleasant Garden meet the expanding reach of the city. The terrain is a network of small watersheds, including the winding Big Alamance Cr and Climax Cr, punctuated by private reservoirs such as Quaker Lake and Reynolds Lake. Further south, the map captures the transition across the Guilford County and Randolph County line, where the small communities of Climax and Julian are situated along the primary transportation corridors. Local aviation is represented by Southeast Greensboro Airport and Kecks Airport, while Gilmore Memorial Park serves the community of Julian. The map documents the residential development pattern of the Piedmont region, showing how suburban clusters have grown around older crossroads settlements like Redcross.
