About this map

South Clermont and the developing area of Citrus Ridge sit at the center of this complex Florida hydrologic network. The landscape is defined by its numerous named water bodies, ranging from the large Lake Nellie and Lake Louisa to smaller features like Pretty Lake and Lake Glona. This 2021 topographic survey provides a detailed view of how residential roads like Florida Boys Ranch Rd and Lakeshore Ranch Rd have integrated into a terrain historically dominated by swamps.

Local history and genealogy interests are centered at the Liberty Baptist Church Cem near Little Lake Nellie. The southern portion of the quadrangle transitions into the Green Swamp, where several distinct landforms emerge from the wetlands, including Joe Lee Island, Wolf Bend Island, and Black Jack Island. These features, along with the various channels such as Browns Canal Dr, illustrate the ongoing management of the region's water table.
