Explore Custer Terrace, Georgia, 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 Custer Terrace, Georgia. 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 Georgia 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 Custer Terrace.
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.

Custer Terrace manifests as a quiet intersection of red-clay earth and dense, persistent woodland, where the horizon is defined by the subtle, hazy blue silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains far to the north. It lies 2.9 miles southeast of Atlanta, GA (from Atlanta, GA: bearing 142°T), and is situated 9.9 miles south of Brookhaven. Sunlight here possesses a heavy, amber quality in the late afternoon, catching the waxy leaves of longleaf pines and illuminating the deep, iron-rich soil that anchors the landscape. At Benteen Park, the local topography finds a brief, manicured clarity, offering a space where the stillness of the inland air is interrupted only by the rustle of foliage. Intrenchment Creek carves a patient path through the terrain just a mile away, its dark waters moving with a deliberate, sluggish grace that mirrors the unhurried pace of the surrounding woods.
Custer Terrace preserves a distinct character shaped by the steady, modest rhythms of its inland economy and the enduring legacy of its mid-century residential foundations. While the proximity of Piedmont Lake provides a quiet, reflective expanse for those seeking the water’s edge, the daily life of Custer Terrace remains centered on the quiet maintenance of its neighborhood streets and the slow growth of local industry. History here is felt not in grand monuments but in the persistent, quiet endurance of the architecture and the way the seasons color the local groves of peach and pecan. Though the Memorial Park Trail lies eight miles distant, the spirit of the outdoors permeates the local identity, grounding the people of Custer Terrace in a landscape that values the quietude of the piedmont over the frantic energy of the modern metropolis.

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.
