How to Use This Flintside, Georgia Map

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

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 Flintside, Georgia

Flintside is a locality in Sumter County, Georgia, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,200. The population density is 120.0 people per km². Flintside is located at 31.5460°N, 84.1530°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 31735, 31701, 30228.

Flintside emerges from the red-clay earth as a quiet confluence of pine-shadowed forest and the slow, deliberate movement of the Flint River. It lies 18.2 miles east-southeast of Americus, GA (from Americus, GA: bearing 116°T), and is situated 10.1 miles west of Cordele. The landscape here is defined by a heavy, humid stillness where the air feels thick with the scent of damp loam and the resinous tang of longleaf pine. Only seventeen miles to the northwest, the faint, jagged silhouette of Rattlesnake Ridge marks the horizon, a distant reminder of the earth’s ancient shifts, while the immediate ground remains flat and fertile. Light filters through the canopy in thin, golden needles during the late afternoon, casting long, lean shadows across the fields that stretch toward Lake Blackshear, where the water mirrors the sky with a glassy, unblinking intensity.

Flintside carries the weight of a regional history built upon the steady harvest of pecan groves and the persistent labor of the soil. Economic life remains anchored to these agricultural cycles, though the proximity of Georgia Veterans State Park brings a different kind of movement to the edges of the woods, where travelers pause to observe the quiet marshlands and the local wildlife. The rhythm of daily life is measured not by the clock, but by the seasonal transition from the heavy heat of summer to the crisp, sudden cooling of autumn evenings. Here, the legacy of the land is found in the simple, enduring architecture of the square and the way the town maintains a steady, watchful pace as it exists in the quiet spaces between the river and the reach of the distant hills.

About This Flintside Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Flintside, Georgia. Coordinates: 31.546008, -84.152963. 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 Flintside includes the ZIP code (31735, 31701, 30228), telephone area code (229, 404, 470, 678), county seat of Sumter County (Americus), and school district assignment.

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.
