The Cahaba River winds through this 2011 survey, serving as a primary landscape feature for the growing communities of Helena and Pelham. The map details a transition from traditional river crossings like Greenlee Ford and Nunnally Ford to a dense network of suburban developments such as Indian Hills, Dearing Downs, and Navajo Hills. Genealogists will find several burial sites recorded, including the Cumberland Cemetery and David Lindsay Cemetery, which anchor the local history of these settlements. The inclusion of the Helena Post Office and numerous residential additions reflects the significant suburban expansion south of the metropolitan core during the early 21st century. Industrial and utility footprints, such as Patton Creek Dam and the Kimberly-Clark Lake, indicate the infrastructure supporting this regional growth.
