2017 Map of Romeo

About this map

The village of Romeo serves as a primary hub on this survey, situated at the junction of several historic routes along the border of Oakland Co and Macomb Co. The landscape is characterized by a series of kettle lakes and drainages, including Thorington Lake, Cusick Lake, and Fisher Lake, reflecting the region's glacial origins. A notable industrial and historical marker is found at Clifton Mill on the banks of Stony Creek, while the Macomb Orchard Rail Trail traces a former rail corridor through the heart of the township. For those researching local heritage, several burial grounds are scattered across the terrain, from the centralized Romeo Cem to the rural Brabb Cem and Clifton Cem. The northern portion of the map is punctuated by Twombly Mtn and the sprawling military Proving Ground, illustrating a mix of natural topography and large-scale land use.
