How to Use This St. Stephens, Alabama Map

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

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 St. Stephens, Alabama

St. Stephens is a locality in Washington County, Alabama, United States. It is a small community with a population of 415. The population density is 16.2 people per km². St. Stephens is located at 31.5711°N, 88.0528°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 36569.

St. Stephens emerges from the dense, humid embrace of the Alabama interior, where the persistent humidity coaxes thick, tangled growth from the stubborn red clay. It lies 49.7 miles north of Saraland, AL (from Saraland, AL: bearing 1°T), and is situated 9.7 miles west-northwest of Jackson. Gordy Mill Creek carves a slow, deliberate path through the landscape, its dark waters reflecting the heavy canopy of bottomland hardwoods that dominate the low-lying stretches. Beyond the creek’s immediate reach, the terrain shifts into a series of quiet, uneven ridges that climb toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Hickory Ridge. The light here filters through the long, needle-laden branches of pines, casting elongated, shifting shadows that seem to hold the stillness of the afternoon. Only a few miles away, the quiet waters of Hendricks Lake provide a mirror for the sky, while the nearby State-owned Submerged Lands preserve a rugged, untamed character that defines the surrounding woods.

St. Stephens remains a place where the weight of the past sits heavy in the soil, a silent ledger of earlier territorial ambition that has long since faded into the quietude of the present. The economy has transitioned from the frenetic energy of early frontier settlement into a deliberate, slower pace centered on the land and the timber that blankets the nearby Saint Stephens State Forest. Life moves according to the turning of the seasons, dictated by the heat of the summer sun and the rhythmic work required to maintain the rural acreage. There is a particular texture to the air here, a heavy, fragrant warmth that lingers even as the sun dips low, marking the end of another day in St. Stephens. The people here move with a measured familiarity, tethered to a landscape that demands patience and rewards those who observe the subtle, shifting moods of the woods and water.

About This St. Stephens Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of St. Stephens, Alabama. Coordinates: 31.571111, -88.052834. 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 St. Stephens includes the ZIP code (36569), telephone area code (251), county seat of Washington County (Chatom), and school district assignment (Washington 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.
