Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal wildfire occurrence database lists 158 fires within 5 miles of Clark between 1992 and 2020, burning about 1,014 acres in total. 10 started naturally. 4 were recorded as arson. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a fire counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

The most recent of them, most recent first, with the day each was reported and the service that recorded it.

Settlements close enough to share some of these fires:

• Buda
• Wade
• Forest Grove
• Arno
• High Springs
• Cadillac

Every fire recorded in Alachua County

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. Museums hold 774 specimens collected within 10 miles of Clark between 1896 and 1975: 521 Animalia, 110 Fungi, 93 Plantae, 24 Unrecorded, 14 Chromista, 12 Protozoa. 12 distinct Species records are shown. Collected by A. Gholson Jr., APRIL AND SHERMAN MINTON, Abel J. Grout and others. Each is a physical object with a catalogue number, and each entry opens the museum's record. This is what was collected and kept, not a survey of what lives here - nothing can be concluded from a species being absent.

Regional context, not property-specific evidence. The federal mineral resources record lists 4 workings within 5 miles of Clark: 4 past producers. None of them still produces. What was taken out: Stone, Crushed/Broken. Distance is straight-line from the map coordinates, so a quarry counted here may appear on a neighbouring settlement's page as well.

Every working recorded in Alachua County
