About this map

Ocala National Forest forms a verdant backdrop to the north as citrus groves and residential developments expand through the lake-studded landscape of central Florida. The town of Umatilla serves as a central hub, connected to Altoona and Eustis by the Seaboard Coast Line railroad. This 1965 survey, updated in the late 1970s, captures the region's agricultural and transportation transition, showing the density of residential growth in Dona Vista and Eustis Meadows.

The hydrography of the region is exceptionally detailed, from the wide expanse of Lake Yale to smaller named bodies like Lake Enola and Lake Mary. Local history is preserved in the location of the Glendale Cemetery and the Umatilla Cemetery, while the Municipal Airport and various radio towers highlight the area's mid-century modernization. The map's purple revisions reveal a landscape becoming increasingly structured with new streets and neighborhoods.
