2021 Map of Otis

About this map

Otis and its surrounding villages sit at the center of this Berkshire and Hampden County landscape, dominated by a series of interconnected water bodies and ridges. The sprawling Otis Reservoir defines the southern portion of the sheet, featuring named points and islands like Kibbe Point and Gate Island. Settlement patterns are concentrated along route 23 and 8, where hamlets such as North Otis, East Otis, and Algerie Four Corners serve as local hubs. Genealogists and local historians can locate early burial sites at West Center Cem and Beech Plain Cem, while the industrial history of the region is reflected in names like Tannery Rd and the Becket Quarry RT Trl near the northern boundary. The terrain is marked by significant rises including Filley Mtn, Lair Mtn, and the distinctive Otis Ridge, illustrating the township's characteristic topography before the encroachment of modern development.
