About this map

South Georgia State College and the southern neighborhoods of Douglas anchor this 2020 map of Coffee County, where suburban expansion meets the distinct hydrology of south Georgia. The landscape is defined by a dense network of water bodies, including Haskin Lake, Johnson Lake, and the meandering Satilla River. These waterways, alongside Seventeen Mile River and Twentynine Mile Cr, create a mosaic of wetlands that historically shaped the region's development and land use patterns.

Local history and genealogy are well-preserved through numerous family and community landmarks. The map documents several burial grounds such as Ashley Yoemans Cem, Wayfare Cem, and Morman Cem, reflecting the early rural settlements that predated the town's growth. Educational and transportation hubs like the Douglas Municipal Airport and the college campus illustrate the modern character of the area, while the boundary with Atkinson County to the south marks the transition into the neighboring pine forests and agricultural lands.
