About this map

Perkiomen Creek and Skippack Creek converge in this densely settled portion of Montgomery County, where suburban development intermingles with long-standing institutional and religious landmarks. The map highlights the academic grounds of Ursinus Coll in Collegeville, a central hub surrounded by a network of historic boroughs including Trappe, Schwenksville, and Skippack. The landscape is notably marked by its diverse religious heritage, evidenced by numerous burial grounds such as the Upper Skippack Mennonite Cem, Lower Providence Presbyterian Cem, and the Augustus Lutheran Cem.

Aviation and industrial history are represented by Perkiomen Valley Airport and Kunda Airport, reflecting the mid-century transportation patterns of the region. To the south, the Schuylkill River forms a natural boundary near Phoenixville and Mont Clare, where the terrain begins to slope toward the river valley. Small watercourses like Mine Run and Schoolhouse Run drain the rolling hills, which are now subdivided by an extensive network of roads like E Ridge Pike and Graterford Rd.
