2010 Map of Taylorsville

About this map

Taylorsville serves as the central hub of this Alexander County landscape, where the foothills terrain is marked by prominent elevations like Linney Mountain and Pearson Knob. The area's hydrology is defined by the winding course of the Lower Little River, which is joined by numerous tributaries including Grassy Creek, Muddy Fork, and Stirewalt Creek. To the west, the settlement of Liledoun sits near the riverbanks, while Kilby occupies the northern reaches of the quadrangle. Local heritage is preserved in sites such as Jolly Cemetery and Mount Carmel Cemetery, reflecting the long-standing community roots in the region. Transportation and infrastructure are anchored by the Taylorsville Airport and the crossing at Bells Bridge, providing insight into the mid-century connectivity of this North Carolina piedmont area. The map also documents managed water resources like the Lower Rogers Lake Reservoir and Upper Rogers Lake near the eastern boundary.
