How to Use This Bargaintown, New Jersey Map

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

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.

About Bargaintown, New Jersey

Bargaintown is a locality in Atlantic County, New Jersey, United States. It has a population of approximately 5,360. The population density is 811.9 people per km². Bargaintown is located at 39.3681°N, 74.5908°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 08234.

Bargaintown occupies a unique position where the quiet, brackish flow of Patcong Creek defines the edges of the landscape. It lies 2.5 miles south-southwest of Egg Harbor, NJ (from Egg Harbor, NJ: bearing 208°T), and is situated 8.4 miles west of Atlantic City. The water here moves with a slow, deliberate purpose toward the Atlantic Ocean, which lies only five miles to the east and exerts a subtle, salty influence on the evening air. Bargaintown Pond sits as a calm, reflective center, mirroring the expansive New Jersey sky as the light fades into a deep, bruised violet. Beyond the immediate terrain, the distant silhouettes of Sandy Ridge occasionally catch the morning sun, though they remain far removed from the local horizon. The land remains low and level, feeling less like a mountain country and more like a place where the earth gradually gives way to the tides.

Bargaintown carries the weight of a long-standing regional history, having evolved from early colonial settlements into a space defined by quiet, residential persistence. Local industry once relied heavily on the natural bounty provided by the waterways, though the economy has since shifted toward the rhythms of modern suburban life. Residents often look toward the nearby Belleplain State Forest for a sense of deep, untamed woodland, standing in stark contrast to the managed greenery found at the Mainland Recreation Center. While the pace of trade has modernized, the connection to the water remains an essential thread in the local identity. The daily life of Bargaintown continues to reflect the practical, working-class sensibilities that have long anchored this part of the state.

Cultural life in Bargaintown is marked by a modest, neighborly character that values the stillness of the surrounding marsh and meadowland. Residents frequently gather at the Mainland Recreation Center, which serves as a vital point for community engagement and outdoor activity. The proximity to Kiahs Island provides a natural landmark that punctuates the view, reminding those who live here of the shifting, fluid boundaries of the coast. While the region is often overshadowed by the larger urban centers to the north, Bargaintown maintains a distinct, grounded atmosphere that favors privacy and local tradition. In the quiet hours of the afternoon, one might observe the way the light catches the reeds near the creek, revealing a beauty that is entirely its own.

About This Bargaintown Map Page

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.
