About this map

The Patuxent River bisects this landscape, separating the residential developments of Calvert County from the rural reaches of Prince George's County. In the east, the community of Dunkirk serves as a modern hub, surrounded by established neighborhoods like Apple Greene and Perwick Village. Historical continuity is evident in the preservation of the Smiths Purchase Cemetery and the Dunkirk Cemetery, alongside newer landmarks such as Southern Memorial Gardens.

Riverfront activity is reflected in features like Bowling Landing and Jones Point, while the interior reveals a mix of agricultural heritage and suburban growth. Transport and local utility are highlighted by the Lower Marlboro Airport and the Dunkirk Post Office. Creeks such as Mataponi Creek and Graham Creek drain the surrounding woods, including the expansive Dunkirk Woods, illustrating the region's balance between its forested past and its developed present.
