About this map

Troy serves as the regional hub of Pike County, characterized by a mix of educational, agricultural, and civic development. The campus of Troy University dominates the central landscape, surrounded by a ring of residential neighborhoods including College Park, Oaks Heights, and Northdale. The transition from the urban core to the surrounding countryside is marked by extensive family holdings and historical sites, such as the Elmhill Plantation and Williams Farm.

Water plays a central role in the geography of the area, with the Conecuh River winding through the northern reaches near Faulk Bridge and Pleasant Hill. Numerous smaller branches and ponds, including Walters Pond and Sand Lake, are scattered across the terrain. Genealogists will find a high density of burial grounds throughout the quadrangle, ranging from the central Oakwood Cemetery to more remote sites like Livingston Cemetery and Starling Cemetery.
