Fulton and its cross-border counterpart South Fulton anchor the southern edge of this West Kentucky landscape, where the flatlands of the Mississippi Embayment begin to rise. In the early 21st century, this corridor remains defined by the winding course of Bayou de Chien and its tributary, Little Bayou de Chien. The rural character of the region is punctuated by small settlements such as Crutchfield and Beelerton, connected by a network of farm roads like Bockman Rd and Roberts Rd. Local genealogy is well-represented through numerous burial sites, including Crossland Cem and Huddleston Cem, while the modern infrastructure of Fulton Airport and the neighborhood of Riceville show the continued development of this transit-heavy area near the Tennessee state line.
