About this map

Lake Wylie serves as the focal point of this 2011 survey, showing the intricate shoreline and residential development along the South Carolina and North Carolina border. The landscape is characterized by numerous peninsulas and planned communities such as River Hills Plantation, Tega Cay, and Forest Acres. Transportation across the water is anchored by the Buster Boyd Bridge, connecting the many fingers of land that reach into the lake.

Inland, the terrain rises toward Barnett Mountain and Nanny Mountain to the west, while the southeastern corner is marked by Wylie Dam and Fewell Island. Local aviation is represented by the Bar-Fly Corporation Airport, and several creeks, including Crowders Creek and Big Dutchman Creek, feed into the central reservoir. The map reveals a high density of residential sub-developments like Honeysuckle Woods and Lakewood Acres, illustrating the suburban growth surrounding the lake at the start of the 2010s.
