How to Use This Alexandria, New Jersey Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Alexandria, New Jersey. 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 New Jersey 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 Alexandria.

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.

Alexandria defines the character of the landscape through the persistent, winding presence of the Nishisakawick Creek. It lies 6.0 miles west of Hunterdon, NJ (from Hunterdon, NJ: bearing 270°T), and is situated 10.0 miles north of Byram. The terrain surrounding Alexandria is defined by an inland geography that favors dense woodlots and open fields rather than the coastal expanses found elsewhere. A quiet solitude permeates the Alexandria Township Wooded Lot, where the flora shifts in color with the passing seasons. Residents often look toward the distant horizon where the silhouette of Old Hound Ridge breaks the skyline. To the north, the terrain dips into the quiet seclusion of Hermit Hollow, providing a stark contrast to the higher ground. The proximity to Camp Marudy Lake offers a modest, reflective expanse of water that anchors the local wilderness.

Agricultural roots have long dictated the rhythm of daily life in Alexandria, creating a legacy of stewardship over the fertile soil. Early settlers recognized the value of the land for farming, a tradition that persists in the modern landscape through carefully managed plots and small-scale enterprise. The economy of Alexandria remains tethered to these traditional industries, though it has evolved to support a more diverse range of local services and professional pursuits. Historical barns and weathered outbuildings stand as reminders of the labor that once moved across these fields with the rising sun. The quiet, industrious nature of the residents reflects a history built upon the steady cultivation of the earth. Today, the balance between preserving this rural heritage and embracing contemporary economic needs remains a central focus for the people of Alexandria.

Cultural identity in Alexandria is found in the communal gatherings and the shared pride in preserving the local environment. Notable landmarks are often understated, taking the form of historic farmsteads or the well-maintained trails that crisscross the area. Seasonal events bring the population together, fostering a sense of continuity that honors the generations who preceded them. While the region is not a hub for international celebrities, it has been home to individuals who have quietly contributed to the arts and regional history through their dedicated work. The atmosphere remains one of deliberate calm, where the quality of the afternoon light filtering through the trees serves as a reminder of the pace of life here. Alexandria maintains a distinct character that values the integrity of its land and the quiet, steady efforts of its citizens.

About This Alexandria Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Alexandria, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.566162, -75.029158. 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 Alexandria includes the ZIP code (08867), telephone area code (908), county seat of Hunterdon County (Flemington), and school district assignment.

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.
