The Delmarva Peninsula landscape of central Delaware is defined here by the headwaters of the Nanticoke River, where the Kent-Sussex line cuts through a mix of agricultural fields and wooded wetlands. The town of Greenwood serves as a central hub, flanked by the historic crossroads of Saint Johnstown and Staytonville. This area is notable for its concentration of Mennonite heritage, evidenced by the Greenwood Mennonite Cem and Tressler Mennonite Cem. Small regional airstrips like Chorman Airport and Willaview Airport are scattered among the farms, while the terrain is etched by numerous drainage systems including the White Marsh Branch and Marsh Branch. To the south, the settlement of Cocked Hat and the northern edge of Bridgeville appear, connected by a network of rural roads that have served these agricultural communities for generations.
