How to Use This Ardmore, Alabama Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Ardmore, Alabama. Use the Map and Satellite buttons above to switch between street map and aerial imagery views. Use the + and − buttons to zoom in or out, or scroll your mouse wheel while holding the Control key to zoom. On a touchscreen, use a two-finger pinch gesture. Drag the map to pan to any area of Alabama or beyond.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key, click the ✕ Exit Fullscreen button that appears above the map, or on a mobile device tap the back button (Android) or the close icon (iOS).

TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the official USGS topographic maps from The National Map — contours, hydrography, land cover and shaded relief, the same mapping used for hiking, hunting and back-country navigation in the Adirondacks, the Catskills and the Finger Lakes. Imagery shows USGS aerial photography, mostly 1-metre NAIP. The search box finds any US town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to Ardmore.

Reading the map like a paper quad. Click Grid to overlay the U.S. National Grid (USNG), labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass.

Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a USNG grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — USNG being the format FEMA and US search and rescue teams work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.

Ardmore occupies a quiet expanse of land where the horizon is defined by the distant, hazy silhouette of Cabbage Ridge. It lies 14.9 miles north-northeast of Athens, AL (from Athens, AL: bearing 28°T), and is situated 19.3 miles west of Lincoln. The landscape here is characterized by the slow transition of soil from dark, moisture-holding earth to the distinctive red clay that clings to the tires of trucks traversing the back roads. Two miles away, the steady, unassuming flow of Holland Creek cuts through the terrain, its banks lined with dense hardwoods that cast long, cooling shadows across the fields. Five miles distant, the waters of Lake Logan collect the afternoon light, turning a deep, reflective slate under the humid air. Nearby, Magnusson Hollow dips into the topography, creating a sheltered basin where the summer heat settles thick and heavy, pressing against the longleaf pines that stand in silent, rigid rows.

Ardmore maintains a pace set by the seasonal cycles of planting and harvest, a rhythm that has persisted since the earliest settlers arrived to work the fertile soil. The local economy remains tethered to this agricultural heritage, though modern commerce has gradually introduced a different texture to the daily movement of the streets. Generations of families have watched the light change over the same fences, observing how the prosperity of the region rises and falls with the yield of the land. There is a particular stillness in the late afternoon here, when the work day concludes and the heat finally begins to lift from the asphalt, leaving the air thin and clear. The character of Ardmore is forged in this quiet endurance, where the memory of those who first cleared the timber remains quietly present in the way the local roads wind around the natural contours of the earth.

About This Ardmore Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ardmore, Alabama. Coordinates: 34.987838, -86.829022. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Ardmore includes the ZIP code (35739), telephone area code (256), county seat of Limestone County (Athens), and school district assignment (Limestone County School District).

Search Maps opens a second, independent map. It searches OpenStreetMap for any US town, county or landmark by name; offers USGS topographic maps and USGS aerial imagery as base layers; overlays a labelled U.S. National Grid (USNG) so the map can be read like a printed topographic quad; measures distance and grid, true and magnetic bearings between any two points; and takes a single GPS fix reporting your position as a USNG grid reference and as latitude and longitude. Map tiles require cell coverage, but a GPS position does not, so the coordinates remain correct even where the map cannot load.

Location data is drawn from the USGS Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and cross-verified against 2020 US Census records by coordinate proximity. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
