The coastal marshlands and developing suburban corridors of northern New Hanover County define this 2016 survey. Centered on the growing communities of Kirkland and Scotts Hill, the landscape is a complex network of tidal inlets and established residential pockets. The Intracoastal Waterway separates the mainland from the prominent beach community of Figure Eight Island, with Middle Sound and numerous finger creeks like Pages Creek and Howe Creek shaping the shoreline.
