Scarborough Marshes dominate the western coastal landscape, where the Scarborough River meets the sea near Pine Point. This 2018 survey reveals a complex network of coastal settlements and family legacies preserved in numerous small burial grounds, such as Libby Cem, Harty Cem, and the Major John Waterhouse Cem near Scottow Hill. The interior is defined by established neighborhoods like Oak Hill and Eight Corners, while the coastline transitions from the broad sands of Old Orchard Beach to the rocky points of Prouts Neck and East Point. The southern portion of South Portland is also visible, featuring residential developments like Sunset Park and Stanwood Park near the Nonesuch River. Land use patterns here balance tidal estuaries and brooks, such as Mill Brook and Jones Creek, with significant local landmarks including Highland Memorial Gardens.
