2017 Map of Villa Rica

About this map

Villa Rica and its surrounding countryside are defined by a complex network of reservoirs and creeks that separate the high ground of William Mtn from the expanding suburban residential developments. This 2017 study illustrates the intersection of rural heritage and modern infrastructure, where established cemeteries like Old Villa Rica Cem and Macedonia Cem sit alongside contemporary landmarks such as the Diamond R Ranch Airport. The landscape is heavily dissected by water, featuring numerous small lakes including Villa Rica Water Works Lake, Lake Val-Do-Mar, and Lake Mimosa. These water bodies feed into major drainage systems such as the Little Tallapoosa River and Dog River, which carve through the terrain near smaller settlements like Ithaca, Sand Hill, and Five Points.
