How to Use This Union Point, Georgia Map

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

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.

Union Point emerges from the red-clay piedmont as a quiet intersection of iron rails and longleaf pine, where the earth holds a deep, rust-colored hue that stains the boots of anyone who walks the fields. It lies 29.5 miles southeast of Athens, GA (from Athens, GA: bearing 144°T), and is situated 6.8 miles east-northeast of Greensboro. The landscape here is defined by a rhythmic succession of gentle rises and hollows, where the air grows heavy with the scent of pine needles and damp soil as the sun dips toward the distant horizon. Only ninety-two miles to the north, the faint, blue-tinted silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the edge of the world, while closer at hand, the stillness of Railroad Pond mirrors the shifting clouds of a Georgia afternoon. Union Point Park serves as a central green expanse, a place where the light filters through the canopy in thin, golden needles, softening the sharp edges of the day. A mile away, the flow of Sherrills Creek cuts through the woodland, providing a steady, low-frequency pulse to the surrounding geography.

History clings to the architecture of Union Point, where the legacy of early rail expansion still dictates the orientation of the streets and the quiet commerce of the district. Once a vital junction for the Georgia Railroad, the economy has shifted from the frantic energy of steam and freight to a more measured pace, though the memory of the tracks remains etched into the local character. Residents occasionally venture six miles out to reach the Town Creek Bike Trail, following paths that wind through the dense, verdant growth of the region. Life here moves in accordance with the seasonal cycles of the fields, turning on the slow, deliberate work of those who labor in the small industries that have replaced the old depots. There is a particular clarity to the dusk in this place, a moment when the shadows stretch long across the clay and the cicadas begin their evening chorus, marking the boundary between the day’s work and the encroaching dark.

About This Union Point Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Union Point, Georgia. Coordinates: 33.618816, -83.075036. 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 Union Point includes the ZIP code (30721, 30669), telephone area code (770, 678), county seat of Greene County (Greensboro), and school district assignment (Greene 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.
