2016 Map of Northwest Goldsboro

About this map

Goldsboro and its northwestern outskirts are defined by the convergence of the Neuse River and the Little River during the mid-2010s. The landscape is characterized by a mix of established residential pockets and rural crossroads like Pike Crossroads and Peacock Crossroads. The area reflects a shift from agricultural land to suburban expansion, particularly around Rosewood. Notable water features such as Buck Swamp and Holland Br drain the low-lying terrain, while Cogdells Pond and Roses Pond serve as prominent local landmarks. For genealogists and local historians, the location of Evergreen Memorial Cem and numerous family-named roads, such as Gurley Dairy Rd and Hardy Talton Rd, provide specific geographical anchors for tracing twentieth-century property lines and community growth in Wayne County.
