Lake Tuscaloosa dominates the northern landscape, its intricate shoreline winding through the southern reaches of the county. The 2020 geography reveals a mix of suburban expansion and long-standing rural landmarks, where the outskirts of Tuscaloosa and Northport meet the water. Notable for local historians and genealogists are the numerous family and community burial grounds documented here, including Carrolls Creek Cem and Macedonia Cem. Further south, smaller bodies of water like Lake Sherwood and Northwood Lake indicate residential development patterns near the city centers. The map also records the topography around prominent features such as Sexton Bend and Stephens Mountain, providing a contemporary view of the region's physical evolution alongside decades of road development like the Old Fayette Rd and Cherokee Trl.
