About this map

The borough of New Milford and the historic village of Harford anchor this detailed study of Susquehanna County's northeastern landscape. Situated in the heart of the Endless Mountains, the terrain is defined by a dense network of upland valleys and named hills like Mott Hill and Wolf Hill. The settlement pattern follows a distinct crossroads logic, as seen in the cluster of familial place names such as Moxley Corners, Tyler Corners, and Steinbachs Corners.

A primary north-south artery, Interstate 81, cuts through the center of the sheet, reflecting the modernization of a region traditionally defined by its waterways. Local recreation and commerce center on numerous lakes and ponds, including Page Lake and Tingley Lake, while the local social fabric is marked by institutions like Sweet Chapel and the Fairgrounds near Harford. Small-scale industry is evident in the numerous quarries dotting the hillsides, illustrating the local extraction economy of the late 20th century.
