2016 Map of Richfield

About this map

Misenheimer and Richfield serve as the primary hubs in this section of the North Carolina piedmont, where the boundary between Cabarrus and Stanly counties follows the winding paths of local waterways. The landscape is defined by a dense network of creeks, including Little Buffalo Cr and Curi Tail Cr, which flow through a region historically shaped by rural industry and agriculture. Smaller settlements like Pauls Crossing, Finger, and Millingport are connected by a web of named country roads, such as Old Mine Rd and Gold Hill Rd E, hinting at the area's geological and mining heritage. Aviation is represented by local facilities like LZ Carroll Airport and Bear Creek Airport, providing a modern contrast to the traditional landmarks such as Mattons Grove Church Rd and Bear Creek Church Rd that anchor these communities.
