2014 Map of Muskegon West

About this map

Muskegon Lake and Lake Michigan define the character of this West Michigan coastline, where the industrial city and its suburban neighbors meet the dunes. The map highlights a complex hydrographic system including Bear Lake, Ruddiman Lagoon, and Mona Lake, which shape the residential layouts of North Muskegon, Roosevelt Park, and Norton Shores. A notable topographical feature is Pigeon Hill, standing near the channel entrance to the harbor. The settlement pattern shows a dense grid in the core of Muskegon and Muskegon Heights, transitioning to more winding suburban developments along the lakefronts. Cultural and genealogical sites of interest include Marys Cem, the Saint Paul's Episcopal Church Columbarium, and the unique Saint Gregory's Episcopal Church Courtyard Cem. To the south, the Muskegon County Airport and the drainage of Little Black Cr into Little Black Lake mark the edge of the urbanized area.
