About this map

Midway and its surrounding residential developments anchor this 2013 survey of the Piedmont landscape south of Winston-Salem. The map reveals a transition from dense suburban clusters like The Oaks, Gum Tree, and Ridgeview Acres in the north to more dispersed rural settlements such as Ebenezer and Bethesda. A complex drainage system of small creeks and branches, including Abbotts Cr, Rich Fork, and Leonard Cr, dissects the terrain, leading toward the significant reservoir of Lake Tom-A-Lex in the south.

Transport is dominated by the corridor of Highway 52, while historical markers like Oil Mill Br suggest an earlier agrarian economy once reliant on local water power. Genealogists and local historians can trace the evolution of local infrastructure through the dense network of named roads, such as Hebron Church Rd and Old US Hwy 52, which illustrate how modern growth has overlaid the traditional rural community boundaries of Forsyth and Davidson counties.
