The Ohio River corridor serves as the primary artery for this West Virginia and Ohio borderland, dominated by the industrial infrastructure of the Willow Island Locks and Dam. This 2011 survey details a landscape where river navigation and overland ridge routes define the settlement patterns. Along the northern bank, Lower Newport and Willow Island maintain their connection to the water, while the interior is marked by smaller hamlets like Horseneck and Borland tucked away along winding creek systems such as Bull Creek and Cow Creek.
