How to Use This Eagle Point, Alabama Map

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

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 Eagle Point, Alabama

Eagle Point emerges from the quiet intersection of suburban expansion and the enduring, humid stillness of the Alabama landscape. It lies 4.5 miles northwest of Chelsea, AL (from Chelsea, AL: bearing 324°T), and is situated 7.9 miles east of Hoover. The terrain here is defined by a persistent, iron-rich earth, where the soil holds a deep, rusted hue and the afternoon light catches the persistent humidity, turning the air into a thick, golden lens. Oak Mountain State Park serves as a vast, verdant anchor for the region, its sprawling acreage defining the local horizon and providing a rugged counterpoint to the manicured residential streets. Nearby, the waters of Cahaba Valley Creek carve a modest path through the woods, while the calm surface of Lunker Lake reflects the heavy, longleaf pine canopy that defines the perimeter of the neighborhood. In the distance, the silhouette of New Hope Mountain rises against the sky, a steady, blue-gray reminder of the ancient geology that shapes this inland territory.

Eagle Point functions as a quiet residential corridor, a place where the economy is tied to the steady growth of the metropolitan fringe rather than the industrial legacies of the past. Life here moves in coordination with the academic and professional rhythms of the surrounding county, drawing its character from families who favor the proximity to protected woodlands over the clamor of the urban center. The influence of the nearby Peavine Falls adds a sense of hidden movement to the landscape, a reminder of the water that flows through the interior of the state, far removed from any coastal current. Residents often find themselves navigating the transition between the dense, shaded forests and the open, sun-drenched clearings that characterize this part of the state, maintaining a lifestyle that values the quietude of the woods. It is a place where the history of the land is written in the slow succession of the seasons, from the heat of the long summer to the muted, bronzed transition of the autumn leaves.

About This Eagle Point Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Eagle Point, Alabama. Coordinates: 33.392989, -86.675816. 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 Eagle Point includes the ZIP code (35242), telephone area code (205), county seat of Shelby County (Columbiana), and school district assignment (Shelby 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.
