About this map

Zephyrhills serves as the central hub of this mid-1970s survey, showing a landscape defined by citrus-era growth and the natural hydrology of the Florida interior. The residential grids of the town are clearly established, supported by community landmarks like the First Christian Ch and the Municipal Bldg near Lake Zephyr. Further south, the settlement of Crystal Springs sits near the headwaters of the Hillsborough River, where the Crystal Springs Park and local Sandpit operations reflect the area's dual reliance on natural resources and recreation.

Transport and topography are dictated by the S C L railroad and the Hillsborough River State Park in the southwest corner. The transition from Pasco to Hillsborough County is marked by a shift into more protected terrain, including the Upper Hillsborough State Wildlife Management Area. Genealogists will find notable value in the locations of the Geiger Cem, Oakside Cem, and Crystal Springs Cem, which anchor the history of early families in the region.
