Explore Redan, 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 Redan, 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 Redan.
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.

Redan maintains a quiet presence within the red-clay piedmont, where the earth holds the warmth of the sun long after the day has begun to fade. It lies 3.8 miles northeast of Stonecrest, GA (from Stonecrest, GA: bearing 37°T), and is situated 9.0 miles south-southeast of Tucker. Swift Creek wanders through the landscape with a persistent, low murmur, carving a path that defines the local terrain. Redan Park offers a sprawling expanse of green space where the native longleaf pines stand as silent observers of the passing seasons. On the distant horizon, the faint, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains provides a reminder of the vast, varied geography that stretches across the interior. Jabco Lake sits calmly just a mile away, its surface reflecting the shifting colors of the sky as the afternoon light settles over the fields.
Redan grew from the steady labor of those who recognized the fertility of the soil and the value of the surrounding woodlands. Early commerce centered on the harvest of the land, with agriculture and timber serving as the primary engines for the families who settled here. As the decades progressed, the local economy shifted alongside the changing demands of the region, yet the industry remains grounded in the practical realities of the piedmont. Small businesses and service-oriented enterprises now populate the area, supporting a way of life that prizes consistency and hard work. The rhythm of daily activity in Redan follows the sun, moving with a deliberate pace that feels removed from the frantic energy of the modern metropolis.
Redan possesses a distinct character shaped by the steady, unassuming nature of its residents and the enduring stillness of its surroundings. Redan Park serves as a focal point for the neighborhood, providing a shared ground where the community gathers for seasonal events and informal recreation. While the pace of life remains measured, the people here share a deep connection to the land that has supported them for generations. Though the region is often quiet, it has been home to individuals who have made their mark on the wider world through their specific talents and dedication. The atmosphere of Redan is one of genuine composure, where the simple beauty of the red-clay hills and the steady flow of Swift Creek define the experience of living here.

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.
