2019 Map of New Buffalo West

About this map

The Lake Michigan shoreline serves as the defining border for a series of closely linked coastal communities straddling the Michigan Indiana state line. This 2019 survey captures the residential density and complex road networks of the southern shore, where New Buffalo and Michiana sit at the northern edge in Berrien County. To the south, the map details the LaPorte County settlements of Michiana Shores, Duneland Beach, and the northern reaches of Michigan City. The landscape is characterized by a high concentration of recreational and residential development, evidenced by the intricate street grids and labels such as Pine Grove Cem. Unlike more rural areas, this map focuses on the modern infrastructure that has grown around these historic lakeside destinations, showing the preservation of traditional names alongside contemporary thoroughfares like Grand Beach Rd and W 1000 N.
