About this map

Lake Erie's southern shoreline anchors this coastal portion of Lake County, where the transition from lakefront residential areas to inland agricultural and nursery land is clearly visible. The village of North Perry sits prominently along the coast, with a network of established roads like Lockwood Rd and Parmly Rd serving the shoreline properties. Further south, the community of Perry and the outskirts of Painesville show more dense development, including the Blackacre Farm Airport and industrial or utility sites near the Grand River.

The landscape is defined by its historic ridge roads, specifically N Ridge Rd, Middle Ridge Rd, and S Ridge Rd, which follow the natural geological terraces left by ancient glacial lake levels. Local history and genealogy interests are centered around features like the Perry Cem and the small residential pockets of West Orchards. Waterways including McKinley Cr and Red Cr drain the plateau into the lake, cutting small ravines through the suburban and rural landscape.
