About this map

Jonesboro serves as the focal point of this 2011 survey, showcasing the expansive reach of Arkansas State University and the surrounding residential growth of Nettleton and Glendale. The map captures a well-developed urban and suburban landscape, where community infrastructure like the Jonesboro Municipal Airport and the Northeast District Livestock Show and Fairgrounds sits alongside significant local heritage sites. A high density of burial grounds, including Woodlawn Cemetery, Temple of Israel Cemetery, and Jonesboro Memorial Park Cemetery, provides a detailed record for genealogical research.

The southern reaches of the quadrangle transition into managed recreational and hydraulic landscapes. Craighead Forest Lake, held by the Craighead Forest Lake Dam, offers a significant water feature south of the city center, while Mary Simpson Pond and various drainage routes like Lost Creek and Christian Creek define the local hydrology. This edition reflects the modern connectivity of the region, featuring a complex network of thoroughfares such as Crowleys Ridge Rd and W Nettleton Ave that link outlying communities like Valley View and Fallis to the municipal core.
