2023 Map of Flat Rock

About this map

Flat Rock and Woodhaven serve as the primary anchors for this contemporary landscape where the suburban sprawl of south-central Michigan meets significant industrial corridors. The Huron River winds through the northern portion of the map, buffered by the green space of the Huron-Clinton Metropark, providing a natural contrast to the dense transportation network nearby. Long-standing rail routes, including the Grand Trunk Western RR and the Detroit Toledo & Ironton RR, parallel the heavy traffic of Telegraph Rd and I-75, highlighting the area's continued importance as a transit hub between Detroit and Toledo. Local hydrology is defined by several drainage systems like Silver Creek and Smith Creek that channel through Brownstown. This 2023 edition documents the modern boundary between Wayne County and Monroe County amidst an increasingly developed residential and commercial footprint.
