About this map

Pinehurst and Southern Pines anchor this 2016 survey of Moore County’s resort and residential core. The landscape is defined by its extensive water features and planned communities, from the residential clusters of Whispering Pines in the north to the historic rail hub of Aberdeen in the south. The proximity of the Moore County Airport and the campus of Sandhills Community College underscores the area's role as a regional center.

Logistics and transit are dictated by the convergence of U.S. Highway 1 and U.S. Highway 15-501, while the Aberdeen & Rockfish Railroad traces the southern industrial corridor. Smaller established settlements like Jackson Hamlet, Monroetown, and Taylortown appear alongside numerous managed water bodies, including Lake Pinehurst and the Southern Pines Waterworks. Cultural landmarks such as Mount Hope Cemetery provide points of interest for genealogists tracing local families in this long-established Sandhills community.
