How to Use This Howard, Georgia Map

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

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 Howard, Georgia

Howard is a locality in Cobb County, Georgia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 50. The population density is 6.7 people per km². Howard is located at 32.6041°N, 84.3791°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 31006, 31039, 30126.

Howard emerges from the red-clay piedmont as a landscape of quiet endurance, where the earth yields to the steady, unadorned growth of longleaf pine and the sprawling, emerald reach of kudzu. It lies 1.7 miles south-southeast of Mableton, GA (from Mableton, GA: bearing 166°T), and is situated 7.1 miles south-southwest of Smyrna. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness that seems to press against the horizon, where the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains serves as a permanent, silent spectator to the plains. Lake Starling sits at the center of this terrain, its surface reflecting the shifting amber light of dusk with a clarity that renders the sky twice as vast. Three miles away, the Chattahoochee River carves a deliberate path through the basin, its currents moving with an ancient, patient rhythm that defines the physical character of the land.

Howard carries the weight of a history rooted in the soil, where the economy has long been dictated by the seasonal cycle of peach orchards and the sturdy yield of pecan groves. The Greenspace Program Acquisition provides a sanctuary of protected growth, preserving the integrity of the natural environment against the encroaching pace of the modern world. Life moves with a gravity attuned to the land rather than the clock, an existence punctuated by the occasional traveler seeking the quietude of the Memorial Park Trail ten miles to the north. In the fading heat of a summer afternoon, the atmosphere feels dense with the memory of labor, a place where the stillness is not an absence of sound, but a profound, collective attention to the earth beneath one's feet.

About This Howard Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Howard, Georgia. Coordinates: 32.604098, -84.379104. 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 Howard includes the ZIP code (31006, 31039, 30126), telephone area code (404, 470, 678, 912), county seat of Cobb County (Marietta), and school district assignment (Taylor 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.
