About this map

East Stroudsburg serves as the focal point of this 1993 study, where the developed streets and institutional landmarks like the High Sch and JM Hill Sch meet the surrounding forests and mountain lakes. The landscape is defined by the convergence of Brodhead Creek and Sambo Creek, a drainage system that has historically supported both local industry and seasonal recreation. Pockets of religious life are scattered throughout the hills, evidenced by the Mt Zion Ch near Mt Zion and the Holy Trinity Ch to the east.

Further north, the terrain transitions into the protected acreage of the Delaware State Forest, where the topography rises toward Brushy Mountain. This area shows a distinct contrast between the suburban growth of Pocono Heights and the sprawling water bodies like Pocohontas Lake and Lake Monroe. The presence of the Stroudsburg-Pocono Airpark and Gravel Pit near Gravel Place highlights the mix of modern utility and resource extraction that persists in this corner of the Poconos.
