2016 Map of Hillsboro

About this map

Hillsboro and Asbury anchor this region of Coffee County, where the transition from the rolling drainage of Bradley Cr and Blue Spring Cr meets the abrupt rise of the Cumberland Plateau. The landscape is defined by the Tennessee Valley Divide, with local commerce and settlement patterns following roads like Asbury Rd and Pratt Rd. Numerous family burial grounds such as Austell Cem, Gentry Cem, and Womack Cem are scattered across the lowlands, reflecting deep generational ties to the land. To the east, the topography shifts dramatically toward Brooks Point and the complex drainages of Beans Cr, where deep coves like Henry Cove and Lusk Cove carve into the plateau. This 2016 survey documents the persistent rural character of the area, maintaining its identity through small settlements like Stephenson and Winton Town even as modern developments like Cumberland Mountain Lake appear near the Grundy County line.
