About this map

The Patuxent River defines the landscape of this 2014 survey, serving as the border between Prince George's and Calvert counties. This riparian corridor is marked by a series of historic river access points including Bowling Landing, White Landing, and Magruder Landing, reflecting the area's long-standing connection to water-based transit and commerce. On the western bank, established rural communities such as Croom, Naylor, and Baden anchor the agricultural landscape of Prince George's County.

East of the river, Calvert County shows significant modern residential expansion, with numerous named estates and subdivisions like Regal Estates and Ashwood Manor surrounding the primary commerce hub of Dunkirk. Despite this growth, historic sites like Smiths Purchase Cem and Lower Marlboro remain, preserving the colonial-era character of the tobacco-growing region. The map captures a unique intersection of 21st-century suburbanization and deep-rooted Maryland river history.
