About this map

The rolling landscape of Rutherford and Davidson Counties in 2013 is defined by a dense network of suburban residential developments and prominent geographical high points. Settlements such as Shadowbrook, Oak Valley, and Southern Meadows illustrate the rapid 21st-century growth south of the Nashville area, while the many named "Knobs" such as Sanford Knob, Prewitts Knob, and Grindstone Knob provide a clear topographic sense of the Central Basin.

Hydrological features like Blue Water Lake and the branching waters of Stewart Cr and Rocky Fork Cr are woven into this developed landscape. Unusual place names like Loafers Corner and Little Hope offer curious historical touchpoints for researchers, alongside dedicated recreation areas such as the Marathon Trail. The map documents a moment of intense transition from rural agricultural land to a complex of named neighborhoods like Belle Mead and Rosewood Park.
