About this map

Fairborn and the expansive campus of Wright State University dominate this 2010 survey of the northeastern Dayton suburbs. The landscape is defined by the convergence of major infrastructure and significant water features, including the Huffman Dam on the Mad River. The map meticulously documents the dense suburban development of Huber Heights and Riverside, contrasting with the open water of Medway Lake and Bass Lake.

Genealogical interest is particularly high due to the density of family-named cemeteries such as Shearer Cemetery, Bath Cemetery, and Gerlaugh Cemetery. These markers of earlier agricultural life remain interspersed between modern residential hubs like Beverly Gardens and Woodland Hills. The layout of thoroughfares like Colonel Glenn Hwy and Lower Valley Pike illustrates the transition from rural Ohio valley roads to a complex regional transit network.
