About this map

Florence and its western outskirts appear in this contemporary 2017 survey, showing the continued expansion of this South Carolina transit and educational hub. The landscape is characterized by a mix of established residential neighborhoods and commercial corridors, with significant educational infrastructure such as the Florence Darlington Technical College in the north and the nearby North Gate area. Several cemeteries and memorial sites, including Mount Hope Cemetery, Florence Memorial Gardens, and Sunset Memory Gardens, are well-defined across the terrain, offering valuable points of reference for local family researchers.

Water features such as Jeffries Creek, Middle Swamp, and the Muldrows Mill Pond define the drainage of the coastal plain, while smaller settlements like Hoffmeyer Crossroads, Ebenezer, and Coles Crossing mark the intersections of the region's roadway network. In the southern reaches, the map records the wetlands surrounding Morris Bay and the quiet reach of Alligator Branch, contrasting with the busy interchange of the interstate system that now dominates the western approach to the city.
