2017 Map of Conway

About this map

The Waccamaw River snakes through this Lowcountry landscape, defining the character of Conway and its surrounding wetlands. This 2017 survey illustrates a modern community deeply integrated with its riverine environment, where neighborhoods like Jamestown and North Conway sit adjacent to extensive drainage systems such as Crab Tree Swamp and Beaver Hole Swamp. The area's status as a regional educational and transportation hub is evidenced by the presence of Coastal Carolina University, Horry-Georgetown Technical College, and the Conway-Horry County Airport. Significant river features like Savannah Bluff and Pott Bluff mark the shifting elevation along the water's edge, while older settlements like Toddville and Grissett anchor the outlying areas. Local history and genealogy are preserved in sites such as Kingston Cemetery and Hillcrest Cemetery, which stand alongside modern infrastructure like the Conway Oxidation Ponds.
