2012 Map of Lake Panasoffkee NW

About this map

Gum Springs and the winding Gum Slough define the hydrologic character of this Central Florida landscape, where wetlands meet emerging residential development. The northern portion of the map is dominated by the dense street network of Marion Oaks, including thoroughfares such as Marion Oaks Blvd and Marion Oaks Golf Way. This planned community development contrasts sharply with the expansive, low-lying marshes to the south. Transportation and utility are marked by the presence of private aviation facilities like Seven Springs Ranch Airport and S & S Avion Ranch Airport. For genealogists and local historians, the Nichols Cem serves as a small but significant site of local heritage, situated away from the primary residential corridors. The map captures a period of transition as suburbia extends into the Florida interior.
