Explore Anderson, New Jersey, 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 Anderson, 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 Anderson.
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.

Anderson emerges from the landscape where the Musconetcong River carves a slow, deliberate path through the earth, defining the character of the soil and the rhythm of the valley. It lies 7.3 miles west of Washington Morris County, NJ (from Washington Morris County, NJ: bearing 263°T), and is situated 7.8 miles south of Warren. To the west, the distant silhouette of the Fox Hill Range anchors the horizon, while the terrain itself rises and falls in long, muted swells that transition toward the nearby Pohatcong Valley. The air here holds a particular, heavy clarity at dusk, when the light catches the moisture rising from the Musconetcong River Wildlife Management Area, turning the fields a bruised shade of violet before the shadows settle. Willever Lake remains a quiet presence two miles away, its stillness offering a stark contrast to the persistent, low-frequency hum of the river as it pulls through the bedrock.
Anderson carries the weight of a quiet, industrious past, where the remnants of early milling and agrarian labor still linger in the architecture of the older foundations. The economy has shifted from the localized trades of former decades toward a quieter, more dispersed existence, yet the connection to the land remains visible in the way the fences follow the natural contours of the slopes. People here move with a deliberate pace, respecting the seasonal shifts in the woodlands and the demanding maintenance of the fields that stretch toward the horizon. Even as the modern world encroaches, the area retains a stubborn, inland gravity, indifferent to the distant, frantic energy of the coast, preferring instead the cyclical predictability of the Musconetcong River and the enduring, silent watch of the hills.

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.
