About this map

Shelby Waterworks and the winding First Broad River anchor this 2013 survey of Cleveland County, which details the residential expansion surrounding the city center. The map reveals a high concentration of established neighborhoods and public housing developments, including Gidney Homes, Olsen Homes, and the Village Square Townhouses. These residential clusters are interspersed with recreational spaces like the Royster Memorial Golf Course and the River Bend Golf Course near the Shelby-Cleveland County Regional Airport.

Outside the primary urban grid, smaller communities like Metcalf, Kingstown, and Zion maintain their identity along a network of rural roads such as W Zion Church Rd and Macedonia Church Rd. The landscape is defined by the drainage patterns of Brushy Cr and Hickory Cr, which flow toward Beams Lake. This edition is particularly useful for identifying contemporary neighborhood boundaries and institutional landmarks like the Kings Mountain Baptist Association.
