2019 Map of New Hill

About this map

New Hill and the surrounding borderlands between Wake and Chatham counties are defined by a mix of suburban growth and major water management infrastructure. The southern portion of the map is dominated by the sprawling Shearon Harris Reservoir, while the northwestern corner captures a section of the B Everett Jordan Lake shoreline. These massive reservoirs reshape the traditional drainage of White Oak Creek and Beaver Creek, creating a landscape where modern recreation and utility meet older crossroads communities. Historically significant nodes like Bonsal and Friendship appear alongside the expanding footprints of Apex and Holly Springs. The presence of Deck Airpark and numerous family-named roads such as John Horton Rd and Kadir Womble Dr suggests a transition from rural homesteads to contemporary residential development in this Piedmont corridor.
