Melton sits in a landscape defined by the winding course of the Black Warrior River, where the Greensboro Municipal Airport and numerous private water bodies like the State Cattle Ranch Lakes suggest a modern agrarian and recreational character. This 2024 survey captures the dense network of family and community cemeteries that speak to the deep roots of the area, including Evans, Taylor, and Limestone cemeteries. The topography is marked by significant hydrological features such as Duffys Bend and Limestone Creek Bar, which illustrate the river's influence on the local geography. Numerous small lakes, such as Jimmy Seale Lake and Lelia Myers Lake, are scattered across the terrain, reflecting the development of private water resources alongside traditional landmarks like Saint Pauls Cemetery.
