About this map

The boundary between Marion and Sumter counties defines the landscape in this 2018 survey, where traditional agricultural settlements meet modern residential growth. The historic community of Oxford sits at a central crossroads, while the settlement of Royal is anchored by the Royal Memorial Cemetery to its south. The terrain is characterized by the distinct vegetation of Long Hammock and numerous water bodies, including the large Lake Miona and Gator Pond.

Genealogists and local historians can trace several burial sites across the quadrangle, from the northern Crum Cemetery near Dallas to the Pine Level Cemetery and the New Covenant United Methodist Church Cemetery. Transportation and infrastructure are represented by the Norton Airport and a dense network of county roads like County Road 42, which connects the older rural pockets of Pedro with the developing residential blocks of Orange Blossom Hills.
