2011 Map of Pinson

About this map

Turkey Creek winds through a landscape defined by significant residential growth and industrial markers northeast of Birmingham. The area around Center Point and Pinson shows a dense suburban network, while the northern reaches retain a more varied topography near Miles Mountain and Brushy Mountain. Local historical touchstones are found at Taylors Chapel Cemetery and the Palmerdale Post Office, anchoring long-standing communities like Palmerdale and Chalkville. The map captures the complex water management of the region, including several reservoirs such as Shadow Lake and Silver Lake, alongside the specialized land use of the Turkey Creek Landfill. Significant elevation changes are marked by features like The Narrows and Cunningham Gap, illustrating the geological transition between the Appalachian foothills and the expanding urban periphery.
