About this map

The dense urban and industrial landscape of Wayne County is defined here by the winding River Rouge as it snake through Dearborn and Melvindale. This 2017 survey captures the area's complex geography, featuring historic sites like Greenfield Village and several prominent cemeteries that serve as anchors for local genealogy, including Ford Cem, Holy Cross Cem, and Woodmere Cem.

Infrastructure and industry dominate the eastern portions of the map, where Fordson Island sits near the confluence of local waterways and the Marion Industrial Hwy serves the heavy manufacturing corridor. Education is represented by large campuses such as the University of Michigan-Dearborn and Henry Ford College, situated near the wooded corridors of the Lower River Rouge. The map provides a detailed look at the residential grids of Dearborn Heights, Allen Park, and Lincoln Park during the late 2010s.
