The Tennessee-Mississippi state line bisects this 2018 survey, marking the intersection of Shelby Co and DeSoto Co. This suburban corridor south of Memphis shows rapid expansion between Southaven, Olive Branch, and Hernando. Amidst the modern residential development and industrial zones like the Airport Industrial Dr area, numerous historical touchpoints remain. Old family and community burial grounds are scattered throughout the landscape, including Phoenix Cem, Saint Thomas Cem, and Avery Chapel Cem. The hydrology is defined by northern-flowing tributaries such as Hurricane Cr and Horn Lake Cr, which carve through the terrain toward the state border. Small established communities like Jago, Plum Point, and Bridgetown sit alongside newer subdivisions, illustrating the area's transition from rural townships to a major metropolitan extension.
