B. Residential

The amount of urban land in the Darby Watershed is small.  The hybrid land use data illustrated that about 2.6 percent of the watershed is utilized for residential uses.  The largest concentrated area of residential uses is in Hellbranch Run subwatershed with nearly 14 percent of the land dedicated to residential uses.  Overall, Darby Creek Watershed remains a rural watershed with only pockets of urban land uses but an increasing number of single family homes with on-site septic systems now dot the landscape.
