How to Use This Carneys Point, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Hanby Creek winds through the terrain, providing a quiet, constant presence that shapes the immediate surroundings. The land stretches out in a series of open, low-lying fields and pockets of dense vegetation that catch the long, golden light of late afternoon. While the horizon remains largely level, the distant silhouette of Big Mannington Hill marks the far edge of the view. Residents often find respite in the quiet green space of Salem City 1, a local park that offers a brief, intentional pause from the pace of daily work. Those seeking a longer excursion might head toward the wooded expanse of Red Lion State Forest, while the waters of Phillips Pond remain a distant, quiet landmark to the north.

Sturdy warehouses and specialized manufacturing plants define the skyline, standing as functional monuments to the town’s role in the broader regional economy. Even as the nature of industry evolves, the workforce maintains a connection to the practical, hands-on traditions that first established the area. This reliance on production and logistics gives the streets a purposeful, unadorned energy that persists through the changing seasons.

Cultural life in Carneys Point is marked by a modest, neighborly sincerity that favors quiet gatherings over loud displays.
