About this map

Hillsboro serves as the focal point of this Highland County landscape, where the urban grid transitions into the drainage basins of Rocky Fork and Clear Creek. The town is characterized by institutional landmarks including the Southern State Community College and several historic burial grounds such as Hillsboro Cem and Saint Marys Cem. Moving eastward, the terrain is defined by the significant recreational and hydrological footprint of Rocky Fork Lake, bordered by Rocky Fork Point.

Rural life in the mid-2010s is visible through the network of township and county highways connecting outlying settlements like Boston and Berrysville. The distribution of smaller family and community graveyards, such as New Light Cem, Kelly Cem, and the County Home Cem, provides essential data for genealogical research. Aviation infrastructure is represented by the Highland County Airport, situated between the city and the lake.
