About this map

The city of Monroe serves as the central hub of this Walton County landscape, where the intersection of Us-78 and Ga-11 anchors a network of growing residential developments and light industrial facilities. The map illustrates the suburban expansion around the historic core, with neighborhoods like Walker Park and Campton radiating outward. Aviation infrastructure is a notable component of the local economy, evidenced by both the Monroe-Walton County Airport and the smaller Aerie Airport to the southeast.

Genealogists will find a high density of burial sites throughout the quadrangle, ranging from the large Westlawn Memorial Cem and Hill Haven Cem to smaller family-named locations such as Adams Cem and Peters Cem. The natural terrain is defined by the drainage basins of Shoal Cr and Jacks Cr, which feed several local bodies of water including Gunther Lake and Bucaneer Lake. To the east, the elevation rises toward Jacks Creek Mtn, providing a distinctive landmark in an otherwise gently undulating landscape of forests and clearings.
