About this map

Midway and its neighboring communities sit along the divide between Forsyth and Davidson counties, south of Winston-Salem. This landscape is defined by the headwaters of the Yadkin River basin, where numerous small waterways like Tinkers Cr, Brushy Fork, and Abbotts Cr carve through the terrain. The central feature of the southern quadrant is Lake Tom-A-Lex, a significant reservoir on Abbotts Cr that serves as a focal point for the surrounding rural residential development.

Transport patterns follow the historical corridors of Old US Hwy 52 and Old State Hwy 109, which connect older nodes like Welcome and Gum Tree. Local history is preserved at sites such as Bethany Cem near Wallburg, while newer developments have expanded around established crossroads like Bethesda and Pilot. The map reveals a transition from traditional agricultural lands to a more suburban residential character late in the 2010s.
