2011 Map of Rio Grande

About this map

The western shores of Cape May County meet Delaware Bay in this 2011 survey, showing a landscape defined by coastal communities and aviation infrastructure. A dense residential grid characterizes Villas, stretching from the waterfront toward Fishing Creek and the interior wetlands. These bayside settlements, including Norburys Landing and Del Haven, are linked by a network of local roads such as Bayshore Rd and Sunray Rd. Further inland, the Cape May County Airport stands as a major landmark near Sally Marshall Crossing, bordered by wooded pockets like Hickory Island. The transition from the developed hubs of Rio Grande and Erma Park to the tidal marshes of Dias Creek and Green Creek illustrates the area's geography, where low-lying terrain like Potato Island remains largely untouched despite the surrounding residential growth and proximity to the bay.
