Colma and the surrounding San Mateo County hillsides are defined by a dense concentration of historical burial grounds, including Holy Cross Cemetery, Cypress Lawn Cem, and the Italian Cemetery. This 1995 revision reveals a landscape shaped by mid-century suburban expansion and major regional landmarks, from the Cow Palace in Bayshore to Candlestick Park Stadium on the edge of San Francisco Bay. The map traces the rugged contours of San Bruno Mountain and the residential grids of Daly City and South San Francisco. It also preserves the historical footprint of former Spanish land grants like Buri Buri and Cañada de Guadalupe la Visitacion y Rodeo Viejo. Educational and military centers are prominent, including San Francisco State College near Lake Merced and the Marine Corps Supply Annex near the northern boundary.
