About this map

Kenansville serves as a central hub of government and education in North Carolina, anchored by the Duplin County Courthouse and James Sprunt Community College. The town's grid is defined by historic thoroughfares like S Main St and Seminary St, transitioning quickly into a landscape dominated by expansive wetlands and low-lying drainages. To the east, Grove Cr and Persimmon Br meander through the terrain, while the northern reaches are shaped by the Buckskin Swamp and Duplin County Airport.

The surrounding rural landscape is interlaced with named branches and creeks, including Stocking Head Cr and Tea Swamp, reflecting the hydrologic complexity of the coastal plain. Local history is preserved at the Routledge Cemetery just outside the town center. The network of local roads, such as Old NC 903 Hwy and Routledge Rd, illustrates the evolution of transport around the county seat, connecting residential pockets to the regional corridor of the S Kenansville Bypass.
