Explore Reece City, 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 Reece City, 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 Reece City.
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.

Reece City maintains a quiet presence upon the red-clay earth of the Alabama interior, where the land stretches out in a series of modest, sun-warmed swells. It lies 4.3 miles north-northwest of Gadsden, AL (from Gadsden, AL: bearing 339°T), and is situated 8.1 miles north of Rainbow City. Little Wills Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the local topography, its waters moving with a deliberate sluggishness that mirrors the slow rotation of the seasons. To the east, the silhouette of Big Mountain rises against the sky, a distant, hazy reminder of the ancient geological forces that shaped this inland basin. Residents often find their way to Town Hall Park, a small patch of managed green that serves as the social anchor for the local neighborhood. Nearby, the water at Clayton Fish Pond remains still and reflective under the heavy, humid air of the afternoon, while the thunderous plummet of Noccalula Falls provides a constant, rhythmic pulse to the surrounding woodland.
Economic life in Reece City remains tied to the rhythms of the soil and the legacy of the regional landscape, where the cultivation of orchards and the quiet labor of small-scale industry define the passage of time. The history of the area is felt in the stillness of the afternoon, when the light turns a deep, bruised gold and the shadows lengthen across the fields that once saw the labor of generations. While the pace of modern life continues to assert itself, the essential character of Reece City persists in the way the morning mist clings to the low-lying depressions of Bob Walden Hollow. Here, the economy relies on a blend of traditional land stewardship and a modest commercial footprint, ensuring that the community remains a distinct point of focus amidst the sprawling, wooded expanse of the state.

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.
