Temperance and Lambertsville anchor this 2019 study of southern Monroe County, just north of the Michigan-Ohio border. The landscape is defined by an extensive network of drainage systems such as the Summerfield and Ida Drain and Fitzgerald Drain, which support the agricultural tracts between established communities. This map reveals the modern transition of historical hamlets into residential corridors, as seen in the growth around Samaria and Greystone Manor. Local history is preserved through numerous family and community burial grounds, including the Neriah Cem and Weeks Cem. Institutional presence is noted at the Monroe County Community College Whitman Center, while smaller settlements like Ida Center and Yargerville retain their distinct identity along the section lines of the Public Land Survey System.
