About this map

Marion Oaks and the surrounding residential developments south of Ocala define this landscape in the early 2010s, illustrating the significant suburban expansion into the Florida interior. The map shows a complex network of planned streets and subdivisions, including Bahia Oaks and the settlement of Shady, interspersed with aviation facilities like Shady International Airport and Mc Ginley Airport.

Evidence of modern infrastructure and land use is prominent, notably the Cross Florida Greenway - I-75 Overpass and the Ocala Sun RV Resort near Marion Crossing. While much of the area is heavily subdivided, natural and managed features such as the Ocala Waterway and the edge of Ross Prairie persist, providing a contrast between the grid-like residential blocks and the local topography of Marion County.
