About this map

Scott Station and Zimmerman anchor this portion of Perry County, Alabama, where a network of localized settlements and family-named water bodies characterizes the landscape. The area is defined by its agricultural and aquaculture infrastructure, notably the series of lakes comprising the Lakeland Farms Lake system and private reservoirs like James A Wheeler Lake and Marguerite S Howell Lake. The drainage of Washington Creek and Brush Creek feeds these various impoundments, suggesting a rural economy closely tied to water management and land use.

Transportation routes like Al-183 and various county roads connect the disparate settlements of Sugarville and Coleman. Genealogists and local historians can find points of interest such as Midway Cemetery and family-linked landmarks like Joe Dozier Lake or Hilton McKee Lake. To the southeast, Vaiden Field serves as a distinct landmark within this quiet interior of the Alabama Black Belt region, where small-scale communities remain centered on historic road junctions.
