About this map

Quincy and its eastern surroundings are characterized by a network of suburban growth and traditional rural settlements in this modern survey. The terrain is defined by several watercourses including Mill Creek, Cedar Creek, and Homan Creek which carve through the landscape, creating distinct geographic areas like Abbey Ridge and the evocatively named Ghost Hollow. For those tracing local heritage, the map identifies numerous small burial grounds and family plots such as the Voorhees Family Cemetery, Laughlin Cemetery, and Kemp Cemetery.

Institutional presence is significant along the eastern edge of the city, with both Vatterott College and John Wood Community College serving the local population. Outside the city limits, small communities like Ewbanks and Hickory Grove maintain their distinct identities along historical thoroughfares. The southern portion of the quadrangle near Burton remains largely agricultural, punctuated by landmarks like Wand Spring and the Saint John's Cathedral Mausoleum.
