About this map

Cross City serves as the focal point of this Dixie County landscape, anchored by the Dixie County Courthouse and the expansive Cross City Airport at its southwestern edge. The surrounding terrain is a complex mosaic of low-lying wetlands and open prairies characteristic of the Florida Gulf coastal region. Broad, named clearings like Tenmile Prairie, Delaney Prairie, and Fish Prairie punctuate the landscape, interspersed with numerous water bodies such as Adams Lake, Sand Pond, and the curiously named Ocean Pond.

A network of local roads and former logging routes, including Wilson Tram Rd and Fuquay Rd, weave through the hammocks and prairies, reflecting the area's timber and agricultural history. To the southeast, the settlement at Old Town Hammock offers a more rural contrast to the county seat, situated near the headwaters of Brushy Cr. This map provides a clear look at the intersection of public administration and the natural swamp-and-prairie environment of north-central Florida.
