About this map

Quantico and the surrounding Prince William County landscape are defined by a mix of military installations and suburban expansion along the Potomac River. The town itself is centered on the Marine Corps University and the Quantico Marine Corps Airfield, situated on a peninsula between the river and Chopawamsic Creek. To the north, the corridor following Interstate 95 and US Route 1 shows the growth of communities like Dumfries, Triangle, and Montclair.

Several historic sites and landforms dot the riverbank, including Possum Point and Cockpit Point. Local heritage is preserved in numerous burial grounds such as Neabsco Cemetery, Hardens Hill Cemetery, and the sprawling Quantico National Cemetery. The importance of water management and transport is evident through features like the Lake Montclair Dam and the CSX Transportation line, which parallels the river and serves as a vital infrastructure link for the region.
