About this map

Neuse River meanders across the northern portion of this 2010 quadrangle, defining the low-lying terrain south of Goldsboro. The landscape is characterized by a transition from the urban fringes of South Goldsboro and Carver Heights into a network of residential communities and swampy bottomlands. Significant water features like Quaker Neck Lake and its associated dam sit to the west, while the massive drainage systems of Thoroughfare Swamp and Brooks Swamp dominate the southwest.

Residential growth is evident in settlements such as Mar-Mac Village, Scott Hills, and Lafayette Park, which cluster along the primary highway corridors. Cultural and genealogical landmarks are preserved at the Rhodes Cemetery and the expansive Resthaven Memorial Park. Further south, the map documents the community of Dudley, featuring the Dudley Post Office near the intersection of local routes and the railroad line, illustrating the area's continued reliance on established transport paths through the coastal plain.
