The Tennessee-Mississippi state line bisects this region just south of Memphis, where the suburban expansion of Southaven and Horn Lake meets the developing rural landscape of DeSoto County. This 2015 survey documents the transition from established neighborhoods like Holly Hills and De Soto Village to the open land surrounding the communities of Lynchburg, Walls, and Nesbit. The terrain is defined by the drainage systems of Horn Lake Creek and Hurricane Creek, which influence the placement of older settlements and road networks. Genealogists may find interest in the location of New Bethlehem Cem and smaller local centers such as Barnesville, Days, and Aldens. The map provides a clear view of the area's modern infrastructure, including the dense residential streets of Southaven and the more dispersed layouts around Lake Lipscomb and Twin Lakes.
