About this map

The Great Egg Harbor River and its expansive marshlands define the geography of this Atlantic County landscape, flowing south past historic communities like Mays Landing and Belcoville. The transition from the settled clusters in the north to the tidal environments of the south is clear, with the river widening near Catawba and Steelman Landing. Low-lying wetlands such as Babcock Swamp and numerous waterways like English Cr and Miry Run underscore the region's hydrological complexity.

Institutional and recreational sites are prominent features, including the Atlantic Cape Community College campus and the sprawling Lincoln Memorial Park. Smaller settlements such as Clarkstown and Thelma appear alongside major transportation corridors like the Atlantic City Expressway and Black Horse Pike, reflecting the area's development as a suburban and transit hub. The presence of Union Cem and Strawberry Fields Airport provides specific landmarks for local history and genealogical research.
