Decatur County land.

01

Locate the parcel within Decatur County

02

Read the Northern Hilly Gulf Coastal Plain setting

Northern Hilly Gulf Coastal Plain belongs to Southeastern Plains. Is the acreage upland or streamside, and what existing maps show about drainage paths and road access? The wider county also reaches Interior Plateau; use the parcel’s location to choose the relevant setting.
