2015 Map of Providence

About this map

Providence and the northern outskirts of Lakeland anchor this 2015 survey of Polk County, where residential development meets the hydrologic complexities of the Florida interior. The landscape is defined by the winding course of Gator Cr and numerous small water bodies like Duff Lake and Sick Lake. The map reveals a transition from traditional rural settlements such as Fox Town and Orangedale to modern subdivisions characterized by looped residential roads and named tracts. Named thoroughfares like Rockridge Rd and Gator Creek Ranch Rd provide access to the interior, while the Green Swamp Aerodrome serves as a distinct aviation landmark. This record captures the intricate grid of the Public Land Survey System, including t27s r23e and t27s r24e, illustrating how historical land divisions continue to shape contemporary land use and property boundaries in this part of Florida.
