How to Use This Bucks, Alabama Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Bucks, 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 Bucks.

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.

About Bucks, Alabama

Bucks is a locality in Mobile County, Alabama, United States. It is a small community with a population of 22. The population density is 21.9 people per km². Bucks is located at 31.0105°N, 88.0242°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 36512.

Bucks emerges from the dense, humid embrace of longleaf pine forests and bottomland hardwoods that define this stretch of the Alabama interior. It lies 13.4 miles north-northeast of Saraland, AL (from Saraland, AL: bearing 12°T), and is situated 8.2 miles north of Creola. The Mobile River carves a dark, steady path less than a mile from the center of Bucks, its waters moving with a quiet gravity that draws the eye toward the horizon where Big Rock rises eight miles away to break the flat monotony of the timberlands. Sunlight filters through the heavy curtains of Spanish moss, turning the humid air into a thick, golden medium that seems to slow the very passage of time. Nearby, the stillness of Alligator Lake sits five miles distant, offering a mirror to the sky that remains undisturbed by the quickened pace of the modern world.

Industry in Bucks is inextricably linked to the land and the heavy, fertile soil that has supported generations of labor. State-owned Submerged Lands occupy the immediate periphery, preserving a natural wildness that stands in stark contrast to the heavy, iron-wrought infrastructure of the local chemical and manufacturing plants that sustain the regional economy. The history of Bucks is a quiet accumulation of red-clay roads and the enduring memory of those who worked the soil and the riverbank long before the current industrial landscape took shape. Life here moves with the deliberate, heavy pulse of the river, where the scent of pine needles and damp earth lingers in the air, grounding the identity of the people in the stubborn, unyielding character of the woods.

About This Bucks Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Bucks, Alabama. Coordinates: 31.010458, -88.024166. 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 Bucks includes the ZIP code (36512), telephone area code (251), county seat of Mobile County (Mobile), and school district assignment (Mobile 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.
