Leisure Village East’s center stands about 50 ft above sea level. Within three miles the land runs from 0 ft to 130 ft, a difference of 130 ft: gently rolling country.
Under the town center the state geologic map shows Lower Member of the Kirkwood Formation (clay, sand), from the Early Miocene, 16 to 23 million years old.
The section below crosses 3 rock units mapped at the surface.
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. Age: Middle Miocene, 12 to 14 million years old. About 8 mi of the line.
Clay, sand. Age: Early Miocene, 16 to 23 million years old. About 7 mi of the line.
Clay, sand. Age: Early Miocene to Middle Miocene, 14 to 20 million years old. About 0.8 mi of the line.
From the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation (Horton and others, 2017), the states’ geologic maps joined at a common scale.
Heights from Copernicus GLO-90 (a surface model: it includes buildings and tree canopy); summits from USGS GNIS; rivers from USGS NHDPlus HR; rock from the USGS State Geologic Map Compilation.
