How to Use This Jeanerette, Louisiana Map

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

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.

Jeanerette unfolds along the banks of the Bayou Teche, where the slow, tea-colored water reflects the heavy, humid air of the low-lying plains. It lies 11.3 miles southeast of New Iberia, LA (from New Iberia, LA: bearing 124°T), and is situated 12.5 miles northwest of Franklin. The land stretches flat and fertile toward the southern horizon, a landscape defined by the rhythmic sway of sugarcane stalks that blanket the surrounding fields like a verdant sea. Though the Gulf of Mexico waits only eleven miles away, the atmosphere here holds the stillness of an inland basin, occasionally stirred by a breeze carrying the faint, saline memory of the distant salt marshes. Near the quiet center of the grid, the King Joseph Recreation Center serves as a vital point of gathering, while the proximity of Lake Fausse Pointe, just three miles to the north, draws the morning mist into the moss-draped branches of ancient cypress trees.

Jeanerette carries the weight of a long agricultural legacy, its identity inextricably tied to the grinding of cane and the cycles of the harvest that have sustained the region for generations. History lingers in the architecture of the older houses and the persistent, unhurried pace of the streets, where the influence of French and Spanish roots survives in the cadence of local speech. Beyond the fields, the influence of the nearby water bodies shapes the daily movement of life, reminding those who pass through that they occupy a space caught between the river’s path and the tide’s reach. While Fishers Island remains a distant silhouette to the south, the singular character of Jeanerette persists in the resilience of its people and the quiet, enduring grace of a landscape that thrives in the heavy heat of a southern summer.

About This Jeanerette Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jeanerette, Louisiana. Coordinates: 29.915237, -91.676308. 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 Jeanerette includes the ZIP code (70544), telephone area code (985), county seat of Iberia Parish, and school district assignment (Iberia Parish 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.
