Explore Oak Grove, 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 Oak Grove, 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 Oak Grove.
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.

Oak Grove occupies a quiet expanse of inland Alabama where the horizon is defined by the steady, darkened silhouette of Eckerberger Mountain. It lies 10.8 miles southeast of Russellville, AL (from Russellville, AL: bearing 128°T), and is situated 13.1 miles north of Haleyville. Mud Creek carves a persistent path through the red clay, its banks lined with the deep green of bottomland hardwoods that hold the humidity of the afternoon in their heavy leaves. Only two miles distant, the still surface of Sand Pit New Hope Church Lake reflects the shifting clouds, providing a mirror to the sky amidst the dense thickets. To the west, the rugged terrain rises toward the distant, protective reaches of the William B. Bankhead National Forest, which marks the edge of a vast, forested wilderness. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and pine, a persistent, grounding fragrance that defines the transition from the low-lying fields into the shadow of the ridges.
Oak Grove persists as a place where the rhythm of the day is dictated by the slow, steady movement of the seasons and the cycle of the land. Deep within the local memory, the influence of the nearby William B. Bankhead National Forest has long shaped the regional character, anchoring the community to the timber and soil that have supported its people for generations. While life flows with a deliberate pace, the proximity of Denton Hollow adds a sense of enclosed seclusion, shielding the inhabitants from the noise of more frantic corridors. Those who traverse the local roads often find themselves pausing at the sight of Butler Falls, where the water’s descent provides a rare, melodic break in the stillness of the woods. Oak Grove maintains its identity through this quiet endurance, a settlement that remains deeply connected to the texture of the Alabama interior.

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.
