How to Use This Forest Hills, Georgia Map

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

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 Forest Hills, Georgia

Forest Hills is a locality in Gwinnett County, Georgia, United States. Forest Hills is located at 32.4901°N, 84.8769°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 30909, 30458, 31907.

Forest Hills anchors the red-clay piedmont where the humid, heavy air of the afternoon often clings to the dense thickets of longleaf pine. It lies 1.2 miles south-southwest of Lawrenceville, GA (from Lawrenceville, GA: bearing 193°T), and is situated 9.8 miles east-southeast of Duluth. Pew Creek carves a shallow, rhythmic path through the local landscape, its dark water moving with a deliberate sluggishness that reflects the thick canopy of hardwoods overhead. Beyond the immediate reach of these trees, the earth yields to open stretches of soil, and on the clearest days, the faint, jagged silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the distant horizon like a crumpled blue ribbon. Lawerenceville Park West provides a quiet threshold of managed green, offering a respite where the silence is broken only by the sudden, sharp call of a jay or the wind shifting through the needles.

Forest Hills grew from the quiet necessity of the inland trade, rooted in a history of agriculture that once relied heavily on the stubborn richness of the soil. While the local economy has evolved to mirror the broader shifts of the modern Southern metropolis, the pace of life remains tethered to the seasonal cycles of peach and pecan harvests. Residents often find themselves gravitating toward the proximity of Lawrenceville City Lake, a gathering point that defines the social geography of the region as much as the older, paved thoroughfares do. The character of Forest Hills is found in these mundane repetitions: the way the light turns a bruised violet at dusk against the brick facades, and the persistent, unyielding nature of the landscape that seems to absorb the noise of progress without ever losing its fundamental, earthy composure.
