How to Use This Allenwood, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Allenwood holds the quiet, damp weight of the lowlands where the Manasquan River carves a slow, meandering path toward the horizon. It lies 2.0 miles south of Wall, NJ (from Wall, NJ: bearing 190°T), and is situated 8.2 miles south of Monmouth. The landscape settles into a humid stillness, defined by the proximity of the Atlantic Ocean, which exhales a brine-heavy mist across the flat, sandy soil. Here, the Edgar Felix Bike Path traces the old rail lines, cutting through the brush like a seam in a worn coat and inviting the traveler to witness the subtle shift of light as it catches the reeds. Beyond the immediate thickets, the terrain remains unpretentious and level, an expanse where the sky feels vast and the horizon is punctuated only by the occasional silhouette of a distant tree line or the low, gray-blue haze that suggests the salt air of the coast.

Allenwood preserves the measured pace of a place long defined by its intersection of water and transit, where the economy once leaned into the seasonal rhythms of the surrounding earth. The legacy of these paths remains visible in the way the local life organizes itself around the river’s edge, moving with the patient, unforced grace of the tides. While residents look toward the nearby Atlantic Ocean or seek the inland solitude of Forge Pond, the character of the locality is anchored in its functional history as a passage between the inland forests and the sea. Even as the modern world encroaches, a certain enduring stillness lingers in the air, a reminder of the quiet, industrious spirit that first established this ground as a necessary waypoint in the landscape.

About This Allenwood Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Allenwood, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.141503, -74.099862. 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 Allenwood includes the ZIP code (08720), telephone area code (732, 848), county seat of Monmouth County (Freehold), and school district assignment (Wall Township 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.
