1961 Map of Hillsboro

About this map

Hillsboro serves as the focal point of this Highland County landscape, showing the town's mid-century expansion through revised street networks and residential pockets like Lilley Hill. The map documents a balanced mix of civic infrastructure and rural tradition, with the Highland Hospital, Armory, and Courthouse anchoring the town center while outlying areas remain defined by small settlements like Boston and Berrysville. To the southeast, the emergence of Rocky Fork Lake and the surrounding Rocky Fork State Park indicates the region's mid-century shift toward water-based recreation and conservation.
