About this map

Palmdale and the small settlement of Harrisburg occupy a landscape dominated by the subtropical wetlands of Glades County. The area is defined by the winding course of Fisheating Creek, which feeds into the sprawling Cowbone Marsh and nearby Linden Pens Marsh. This 2021 survey shows a region largely preserved through the Fisheating Creek Wildlife Management Area, where human activity is limited to a few arterial roads like Co RD 74 and the residential grid of Palmdale featuring streets like Main Ave and Seminole.

Further south, Hall City stands near the confluence of Turkey Branch and York Branch. The infrastructure reflects the region's management of water and geography, most notably the Herbert Hoover Dike and the Lykes Brothers Pond in the eastern section of the quadrangle. The map captures a quiet interior of Florida where the drainage patterns of Gopher Gully and Rock Lake shape the local environment more than urban development.
