2020 Map of Livingston

About this map

The Sucarnoochie River and its many tributaries, including Shumulla Cr and Holetah Cr, define the drainage and topography of this western Alabama landscape. At the center of this 2020 survey is Livingston, anchored by the University of West Alabama and the Sumter County Courthouse. The map reveals a transition from the urban grid of the town to the surrounding wetlands and creek bottoms, where family and community heritage is preserved at sites like Potts Cem, Johnson Cem, and Houston Cem. South of the main settlement, the land rises toward Baldwin Hill before dropping into the broad floodplain of Alamuchee Creek, which is marked by distinctive hydrological features such as The Cutoff. The survey provides a clear view of the modern road network, including the intersection of Lafayette St and North St, while maintaining the names of smaller water bodies like Hannah Br and Bibbs Br that have long shaped local geography.
