2014 Map of Oro Valley

About this map

Oro Valley and the neighboring community of Catalina sit at the desert edge of the Santa Catalina Mountains, showcasing the suburban expansion of Pima County in the early 21st century. The map highlights a landscape defined by dramatic elevation changes, transitioning from the residential subdivisions along N Oracle Rd to the protected wilderness of the Coronado National Forest. This interface between developed land and the high desert is marked by numerous drainage systems, including Sutherland Wash and Big Wash, which descend from the high peaks of Pusch Ridge and Mt Kimball.
