About this map

North Charleston and the sprawling developments between Summerville and Goose Creek define this modern landscape. The map captures a high-density suburban and industrial corridor anchored by the Charleston Air Force Base/International Airport. Higher education and regional medical facilities are prominent features, including the campus of Charleston Southern University and specialized institutions like Trident Technical College.

Dense residential neighborhoods such as Deer Park, Otranto, and Windsor Hills are woven between significant water features like the Goose Creek Reservoir and the winding Ashley River. Genealogists will find numerous burial grounds preserved amidst the growth, from the expansive Carolina Memorial Gardens to smaller, historic sites like Cherry Hill Cem and Saint James Goose Creek Cem. The drainage patterns of the coastal plain remain visible through the numerous named wetlands, including Ancrum Swamp and Bluehouse Swamp.
