Where is the Legend of the map typically found?

The Legend of a map, also known as the key, is typically found in the lower left corner. This location is standard for many maps as it provides a clear and easily accessible area for users to refer to when trying to understand the symbols used throughout the map. The lower left corner is often chosen because it aligns well with the way people commonly read maps: from top to bottom and left to right. Thus, having the legend in this area ensures that it is readily visible and can be quickly referenced for interpreting the features depicted on the map. Other locations, such as the upper corners or the lower right corner, may not be as conducive to easy reference, potentially leading to confusion when trying to relate the symbols to the terrain or features illustrated.
