Explore Coosada, 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 Coosada, 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 Coosada.
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.

Coosada unfolds across a landscape defined by the persistent, winding presence of Coosada Creek, which carves a path through the dense, humid canopy of bottomland hardwoods and longleaf pines. It lies 2.2 miles northeast of Millbrook, AL (from Millbrook, AL: bearing 55°T), and is situated 9.2 miles north-northwest of Montgomery. The terrain here holds a quiet stillness, characterized by the soft, iron-rich earth of the region and the occasional depression of Cat Hollow, which deepens the shadows as dusk settles over the fields. Only a mile away, the surface of R E 'Bob' Woodruff Reservoir reflects the cooling sky, acting as a tranquil anchor for the surrounding woodlands. While the distant silhouette of Heck Ridge marks the horizon, the immediate earth feels heavy with the scent of damp soil and the slow, rhythmic transition of the seasons, far removed from any maritime influence.
Coosada carries the weight of a long and complex history, grounded in a heritage that remains visible in the quiet endurance of its red-clay back roads and the legacy of its people. The local economy has evolved from the agrarian roots of the surrounding peach and pecan country, adapting to the modern pace while maintaining the unassuming character of a place built on industry and land management. Nearby, the State-owned Submerged Lands preserve the ecological integrity of the riparian environment, protecting the natural corridors that have supported life here for generations. Life in Coosada moves with a deliberate, steady tempo, punctuated by the occasional distant sound of water spilling over the rocks at Wetumpka Falls, a reminder of the persistent forces that continue to shape the geography and the spirit of this inland home.

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.
