About this map

Lake Munson and the surrounding karst topography south of Tallahassee define this area of Leon County. The landscape is characterized by a complex drainage system where surface waters like Fisher Cr and Munson Slough interact with subterranean features such as Blue Sink and Riversink Spring. These natural features have long dictated the patterns of local life, from early settlement at Lutterloh to the modern residential corridors branching off Springhill Rd and Bice Rd.

Family history is preserved at the Harvey Cem and Sutton Cem, providing valuable touchstones for genealogists researching the rural communities of northern Florida. The map also traces the transition from wetland areas like McBride Slough to the expanding road networks, including named thoroughfares such as New Light Church Rd and Robert Golden Rd, illustrating the suburban growth surrounding the state capital in the early 21st century.
