Soil and ground
Mapped soils in the area are mostly Cecil (3 of 5 points) with Appling and Wehadkee. NRCS rates four points somewhat limited and one very limited, citing slow water movement, a saturated zone and flooding. One poorly drained Wehadkee map unit lists a water table at 0 inches. Elevation is about 864 feet. Wilson Creek runs 0.5 mile away. This is generalized survey data, not a property evaluation; individual lots differ and each needs a site evaluation.
Soil data: USDA NRCS Web Soil Survey. Housing data: US Census Bureau ACS.Homes here
The 2020 Census counted 4,244 housing units. In 2020-2024 ACS estimates the median home was built about 2000, with about 28 percent before 1980. About 75 percent are owner-occupied and about 4 percent are mobile homes. A median build year around 2000 points to many newer houses, and their tanks still call for regular pumping and an inspection when a home changes hands.
