How to Use This Fulton, Alabama Map

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

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.

Fulton emerges from the dense, humid embrace of longleaf pine forests and bottomland hardwoods that define this stretch of the Alabama interior. It lies 59.5 miles southwest of Selma, AL (from Selma, AL: bearing 224°T), and is situated 8.7 miles south of Thomasville. Bassett Creek bisects the landscape, its dark, slow-moving waters carving a path through the red-clay soil that stains the back roads a deep, oxidized ochre. The air here holds a heavy, persistent moisture, often shimmering under a sun that turns the late afternoon light into a thick, syrupy gold. To the far horizon, the faint, blue-tinted silhouette of Chatman Ridge provides a silent boundary to the earth, while closer to home, the quiet surface of Scotch Club Lake remains undisturbed by the regional bustle, reflecting the stoic, swaying canopy above.

Fulton carries the weight of a working history, its economy deeply rooted in the timber and wood-products industry that has long sustained the livelihoods of those who call the place home. The rhythm of daily life is measured by the steady hum of machinery and the movement of freight, a stark contrast to the stillness found a few miles away at Gates Dr. Park, where the forest reclaims the silence. People here move with a deliberate, tempered grace, honoring a legacy of endurance that persists in the weathered frame houses and the expansive, pecan-shaded yards. Fulton persists as a place of quiet industry, where the memories of the past are kept in the steady, rhythmic pulse of the present, unbothered by the frantic pace of the world beyond the trees.

About This Fulton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fulton, Alabama. Coordinates: 31.790989, -87.744212. 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 Fulton includes the ZIP code (36446), telephone area code (251), county seat of Clarke County (Grove Hill), and school district assignment (Clarke 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.
