Indian River Bay and its complex network of inlets define this coastal region of Sussex County, where the transition from late 20th-century agriculture to shoreline residential development is well underway. The map records the emergence of numerous mobile home parks and residential enclaves such as Oak Orchard, Black Water Village, and River Village along the tidal fingers of Pepper Creek and Island Creek. Cultural history is anchored by several prominent houses of worship, including the Prince George Chapel and the Nanticoke Indian Center, signaling the deep community roots in the interior neck lands.
