2015 Map of Meridian South

About this map

Meridian spreads across the northern section of this map, transitioning from the dense urban grid of the city center to the rolling woodlands of southern Lauderdale County. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Sowashee Creek and its many tributaries, including Graham-Mill Cr and Gays Branch. Local history is deeply etched into the terrain through a high concentration of family and community burial grounds, such as Rose Hill Cem and McLemore Cem. To the east, the Bonita Reservoir and Webb Lake provide significant water features near the settlement of Bonita. The map also illustrates the importance of regional infrastructure, from the aviation facilities at Key Field to the academic grounds of Meridian Community Coll, alongside outlying communities like Zero and Pleasant Hill.
