About this map

The suburban expansion and preserved landscapes of northeastern Baltimore County are visible on this 2016 survey, where the established community of Perry Hall meets the growing retail and transit hubs of White Marsh. The landscape is defined by the significant waterways of Gunpowder Falls and Little Gunpowder Falls, which carve through the terrain as they flow toward the Bird River. These river valleys historically separated the settlements of Kingsville and Jerusalem from the more densely developed corridors to the southwest.

Industrial and aviation history is noted through local landmarks such as White Marsh Station and the Albrecht Airstrip near Gittings. The map details a transition from compact residential neighborhoods like Forge Heights and Darleigh Manor to the more open, rural character of Baldwin and Fork at the northern edge. Significant local markers for genealogists include the Fork Cem and numerous named manor estates that reflect the region's long-standing land divisions.
