About this map

The northern suburbs of Jackson and the rapidly expanding city of Madison dominate this landscape during the late 1990s. This survey illustrates a period of significant suburban development at the tri-county junction of Madison, Hinds, and Rankin counties. The massive Ross Barnett Reservoir anchors the eastern half of the map, creating a complex shoreline that defines the Pelahatchie Recreation Area and Lakeshore Park.

Inland, the historic Natchez Trace Parkway curves through the terrain, passing landmarks such as the Natchez Trace Mem Pk Cem and Madison Airport Bruce Campbell Field. Local history is preserved in the numerous schools and religious sites like Madison-Ridgeland Academy and St Matthews Ch, while recreational spaces like the Jackson Country Club and Timberlake Campground show the region's mid-century transition from rural land to a leisure-oriented residential hub.
