How to Use This Belleville, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Belleville stands as a quiet observer of the shifting tides, anchored firmly by the constant, rhythmic flow of the Passaic River that defines its western edge. The air here often carries a faint, saline memory of the distant coast, reminding inhabitants that the vast reach of Bushwick Inlet lies only eleven miles away. To the north, the solitary silhouette of Laurel Hill rises four miles distant, breaking the horizon line with a steady, earthen grace. Residents find a local sanctuary in Daniel Morris Park, where the afternoon light filters through the canopy to illuminate the paths. Beyond the immediate terrain, the Morris Canal Basin sits eight miles off, a reminder of the industrial veins that once pulsed through this region.

Belleville grew from a foundation of industrious spirit, evolving from early colonial roots into a hub of manufacturing and diverse craftsmanship. The local economy flourished as factories utilized the proximity of the Passaic River to transport goods and fuel the growth of a hardworking populace. As the decades passed, the town maintained a steady rhythm of commerce, balancing the demands of modern industry with the needs of its people. The legacy of these industrious years remains visible in the sturdy architecture that lines the streets and the enduring pride of those who contribute to the local fiber today. While the landscape has shifted to reflect modern suburban density, the echoes of past productivity continue to shape the character of the neighborhood.

Belleville fosters a cultural identity defined by its resilient heritage and the diverse traditions of its many inhabitants. The town celebrates its history through community gatherings and the preservation of landmarks that reflect a long-standing commitment to local unity. Among those who have walked these streets, the legendary musician Frankie Valli stands out as a genuine figure of global renown, born and raised within the local reach. Residents often gather for seasonal events that enliven the public spaces, creating a sense of belonging that transcends the rapid pace of the surrounding region. Even as the world changes, Belleville retains a distinctive, grounded atmosphere where the simple beauty of a sunset over the river remains a cherished daily occurrence.

About This Belleville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Belleville, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.793712, -74.150144. 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 Belleville includes the ZIP code (07109), telephone area code (201, 551), county seat of Essex County (Newark), 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.
