2023 Map of Muskegon West

About this map

Muskegon Lake and the Muskegon River dominate the landscape of this Lake Michigan shoreline, where the city of Muskegon sits at a geographic crossroads. The transition from industrial waterfront to residential districts is visible through features like Ruddiman Lagoon and Pigeon Hill. The map provides significant genealogical value, identifying several specific memorial sites including the Old Indian Cem near the river's mouth, the Saint Paul's Episcopal Church Columbarium, and Marys Cem. Transportation remains central to the area's identity, from the Lake Express Ferry terminal on the lakefront to the Muskegon County Airport further inland near Norton Shores. The residential growth of Roosevelt Park and Muskegon Heights is mapped in detail, showing a densely settled corridor bordered by Mona Lake and Black Creek.
