Explore Brantleyville, Alabama, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Brantleyville, 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 Brantleyville.
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.

Brantleyville emerges from the red-clay earth as a collection of quiet, sun-drenched intersections surrounded by dense stands of longleaf pine and hardwood. It lies 3.9 miles west-southwest of Alabaster, AL (from Alabaster, AL: bearing 240°T), and is situated 6.1 miles southwest of Pelham. The landscape is defined by the gentle, persistent dip of Opossum Valley, which pulls the morning mist into its basin before the heat of the day dissolves the fog into a shimmering, humid haze. A few miles to the east, the silhouette of Potato Hill breaks the skyline, providing a singular, stationary point of orientation against the vast, shifting canopy of the surrounding woodland. When the light leans long and golden in the late afternoon, the air takes on a dense, textured quality, turning the dust kicked up from unpaved back roads into suspended particles of amber that catch the fading sun.
Brantleyville maintains a tether to the agricultural cycles of the region, where the legacy of peach and pecan orchards continues to shape the local economy and the seasonal rhythm of the residents. While the pace of daily life is measured by the slow accumulation of hours rather than the urgency of industry, the proximity to Tannehill State Park provides a connection to the deeper, industrial history of the surrounding area. Modern echoes of the past persist in the structure of the local commerce, where small-scale trade remains the primary fiber of the community. In this corner of the state, the heritage of the soil—thick with iron-rich sediment and history—remains the most reliable indicator of how Brantleyville defines its own modest, enduring character.

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.
