2013 Map of Occoquan

About this map

Occoquan Reservoir and the Occoquan River dominate the central geography of this Northern Virginia landscape, serving as a defining boundary between sprawling residential developments and protected green spaces. The map illustrates a dense network of suburban communities that characterize the early 21st-century growth in Prince William County, including Marumsco Village, Woodbridge, and Potomac Mills. Notable land use is varied, ranging from the recreational Lake Ridge Golf Park and Marina and Fountainhead Regional Park to the institutional State Prison Camp Number 6. The transition from established town centers like Occoquan to the numerous named subdivisions like Darbydale, Forestdale, and Kerrydale reflects the intensive late-century residential infill of the corridor. Smaller geographic features like Hooes Run and Sandy Run provide a natural counterpoint to the heavy infrastructure of the Fairfax County Pkwy and surrounding commuter routes.
