Homerville’s center stands about 180 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 170 ft to 230 ft, a difference of 60 ft: gently rolling country.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Pleistocene-Pliocene sands and gravels (sand, gravel), from the Pliocene to Pleistocene, less than 5.3 million years old.
Heights every 0.1 mile from the Copernicus GLO-90 surface model; vertical exaggeration about 64×. The colored band under the surface is the rock the state geologic map shows at the surface, not a picture of what lies beneath.
Sand, gravel. Age: Pliocene to Pleistocene, less than 5.3 million years old. About 24 mi of the line.
