The Conecuh County Alabama map becomes much more informative when Evergreen is read as the central transportation hub, Castleberry as the southern U.S. 31 community, Repton as the western railroad town, and the Sepulga–Murder Creek–Burnt Corn Creek system as a separate geographic layer. With very low population density, the county is defined less by continuous development than by long road corridors, stream valleys, and small rural communities.

The U.S. Census Bureau estimates 10,899 residents as of July 1, 2025. The 2020 census counted 11,597 people on 850.28 square miles of land, producing a density of only 13.6 people per square mile. The roughly 6 percent decline from the 2020 estimates base to 2025 reinforces what the map suggests: large rural spaces separate the incorporated towns and most settlement follows roads, rail corridors, and stream valleys.
What the Map Shows
Evergreen is the county seat, largest city, and strongest transportation anchor. Interstate 65 runs through the central county on the Montgomery–Mobile corridor, U.S. 31 provides a more local north-south route, and U.S. 84 crosses east-west. Because those three systems converge near Evergreen, the city is the best reference point for placing every other part of Conecuh County.
Castleberry lies south of Evergreen on the U.S. 31 corridor. The community began around an early stagecoach stop and later developed along the Mobile and Montgomery Railroad. Its position marks the transition from the Evergreen core toward the southern countryside and the Escambia–Covington side of the region.
Repton lies west of Evergreen near U.S. 84. A railroad branch from Pine Apple reached Repton in 1899, helping create a short-lived railroad boom town that still functions as the county’s principal western incorporated reference. Castleberry and Repton are therefore not interchangeable small-town labels: one organizes the south, the other the west.
ALDOT mapping adds a much denser rural layer, including Lyeffion, Belleville, Owassa, Brooklyn, Paul, Burnt Corn, Fairnelson, Centerville, Cohassett, Nymph, Johnsonville, and Georgiaville. These localities show that the broad spaces between the three municipalities contain many road-based communities with their own creek crossings and local connections.
County Layout and Location
Conecuh County lies in south-central Alabama. Butler County is to the north, Covington County to the east, Escambia County to the south, and Monroe County to the west. Interstate 65 gives the central part of the county direct access to the Montgomery–Mobile corridor, while the western and southern countryside depends more heavily on U.S. 84, U.S. 31, and county roads.
U.S. 31 connects Evergreen and Castleberry on the north-south local corridor. U.S. 84 runs west through Repton and east toward Covington County. I-65 passes the Evergreen area as the faster regional route. Separating those three roads on the map prevents a common mistake: treating every north-south line as if it served the same type of travel.
Water becomes increasingly important toward the western and southern edges. The Sepulga River is a major tributary of the Conecuh River and crosses the lower part of the regional drainage. Outdoor Alabama places its confluence with the Conecuh River about seven miles south of the Brooklyn community near the Escambia–Conecuh county border.
One name is especially easy to misread: Conecuh National Forest. Despite the name, the U.S. Forest Service states that the forest boundary lies in Covington and Escambia counties, not Conecuh County. The ALDOT map likewise places the federal forest south of the county line, so the shared name should not be treated as proof that the forest lies inside this county.
Local Context
Conecuh County was created by the Alabama Territorial Legislature on February 13, 1818, before Alabama achieved statehood. The county’s name is commonly traced to a Creek expression referring to canebrakes. Its original territory was much larger than the modern county, and later county formations reduced it to the present south-central Alabama outline.
Evergreen was not the original county seat. Sparta held that role before damage during the Civil War and the search for a more central location led to Evergreen’s selection in 1866. The move is geographically logical on the modern map: Evergreen now sits where the county’s strongest north-south and east-west transportation corridors meet.
The Sepulga River is the county’s most important named river system. Outdoor Alabama describes a 470-square-mile watershed beginning in Lowndes County and crossing seven Alabama counties before joining the Conecuh River. More than 97 percent of the watershed is forested, and its channel alternates among sandy bottoms, rocky cobbles, deeper pools, and narrow faster sections.
Murder Creek and Burnt Corn Creek add another layer to the western and southern map. Both are tributaries of the lower Conecuh River system. ALDOT mapping traces Murder Creek and its branches through the northwest and Burnt Corn Creek through the Burnt Corn–Lyeffion side, linking community names directly to drainage geography.
The historic Battle of Burnt Corn Creek also illustrates why old county references need caution. The 1813 battle occurred when Conecuh County covered a much larger territory; the likely site is in present-day Escambia County near today’s Conecuh County line. A historical source saying “Conecuh County” therefore may describe an 1813 boundary rather than the current one.
Ways to Use This Map
Begin with Evergreen and place Castleberry to the south along U.S. 31 and Repton to the west along the U.S. 84 side. Then add I-65 as a separate regional corridor. This sequence establishes the three incorporated communities before the more complicated rural and hydrologic layers are added.
For physical geography, use the Sepulga as the principal drainage reference, then add Murder Creek and Burnt Corn Creek. For finer settlement work, compare ALDOT labels such as Lyeffion, Belleville, Owassa, Brooklyn, and Paul. A final check of the southern county line is useful when discussing Conecuh National Forest so that the forest’s Covington–Escambia location is not mistakenly assigned to Conecuh County.
- Compare Evergreen, Castleberry, and Repton as central, southern, and western anchors.
- Separate I-65, U.S. 31, and U.S. 84 by regional versus local travel role.
- Trace the Sepulga, Murder Creek, and Burnt Corn Creek drainage relationships.
- Add Brooklyn, Lyeffion, Belleville, Owassa, and other rural communities from ALDOT mapping.
- Keep Conecuh National Forest on the Covington–Escambia side of the county line.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the map show every city and community?
No. ALDOT’s county sheet identifies many additional localities, including Lyeffion, Belleville, Owassa, Brooklyn, Paul, Burnt Corn, Fairnelson, Cohassett, Nymph, and others. That road map is the better companion when a project depends on small rural communities or county-road connections.
Can the map be printed?
The JPG can be printed from standard image or document software. If small place labels and stream-side county boundaries need to remain legible on a large sheet, compare the source pixel dimensions with the intended enlargement before printing.
What does the download include?
The button opens the Conecuh County graphic as a standalone JPG. Saving that file keeps navigation, advertising areas, and surrounding article text out of the image, leaving a clean map for document placement or offline storage.
