Crossville serves as the central hub of this modern survey, situated atop the Cumberland Plateau at a prominent topographic division. The Tennessee Valley Divide snakes through the western portion of the map, separating drainage that feeds the Obed River and its many tributaries, such as Wolfpen Br and Walker Br, from other watersheds. This area of Tennessee is characterized by its numerous small crossroads settlements and family burial grounds, including Baker Crossroads, Dykes Crossroads, and the Lowery Stand Cem. To the south and west of the city, the landscape is punctuated by substantial water bodies like Lake Holiday, Meadow Park Lake, and Dorton Lake. The aviation history of the region is anchored by the Crossville Memorial Airport-Whitson Field, while residential developments like Volunteer Heights and Woodlawn show the modern footprint of the county seat.
