The sprawling suburban and industrial character of central Pennsylvania is on full display in this 2016 survey, where the town of Hershey serves as a major hub. The landscape is defined by its transit corridors and the winding path of Swatara Creek, which flows past the established borough of Hummelstown and the village of Union Deposit. The map documents a blend of academic, medical, and agricultural land uses, notably featuring the Pennsylvania State Univ Coll of Medicine campus. Smaller residential pockets such as Hockersville, Palmdale, and Hoernerstown are interspersed among the larger settlements. Local history is traced through sites like the Hershey Cem and the Brookside Farms Airport, while modern infrastructure like W Chocolate Ave and Allentown Blvd connects these historic communities across the Dauphin Co and Lebanon Co border.
