About this map

Bishop International Airport serves as a major landmark on the western edge of this 2011 landscape, anchoring the suburban growth south of Flint. The area is characterized by a dense network of residential streets and arterial roads like Van Slyke Rd and Fenton Rd that connect the larger urban center to communities like Grand Blanc and Whigville. Historically significant sites for genealogists include several well-established burial grounds, such as Bristol Cemetery and Evergreen Cemetery, which are preserved alongside modern developments.

Water features define the natural drainage of the region, with Swartz Creek and Thread Creek meandering through the terrain. In the northeast, Thread Lake provides a central point for the Burton area. Recreational spaces are prominent throughout the quadrangle, including the Southmoor Golf Course and Loch Lomond Golf Course, illustrating the land use patterns of Genesee County in the early twenty-first century.
