How to Use This Fairfield, New Jersey Map

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

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 Fairfield, New Jersey

Fairfield is a locality in Monmouth County, New Jersey, United States. Fairfield is located at 40.2054°N, 74.2138°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 07727, 07004.

Fairfield maintains a quiet equilibrium where the moisture of the Atlantic Ocean air drifts inland to meet the steady, low-lying pulse of the local landscape. It lies 4.6 miles north of Howell, NJ (from Howell, NJ: bearing 8°T), and is situated 6.0 miles southwest of Monmouth. The Manasquan River carves a deliberate path through the terrain, its banks defining the edges of a geography shaped by soft earth and the persistent, quiet growth of vegetation. To the west, the subtle rise of the Hominy Hills provides a faint silhouette against the sky, while Hoffman Fields serves as a central clearing where the land remains open to the sky and the shifting seasonal light. The air here holds a distinct, heavy quality, suggesting the proximity of the coast without the direct salt spray, leaving the horizon a pale, hazy gray that softens the sharp angles of the suburban architecture.

Fairfield grew from an agrarian past into a landscape defined by the logistics of the modern economy, shifting from the tilled soil of early settlers to a hub of commerce and distribution. The rhythm of the work day is dictated by the movement of goods across a network of roads that weave through the territory, balancing the efficiency of industry with the preservation of local spaces like Hoffman Fields. History here is not found in grand monuments, but in the slow transition of fields into the functional infrastructure that sustains the surrounding state. Even with the influence of the nearby Swimming River Reservoir, the character of Fairfield remains grounded in its identity as a place of transit and labor, where the distant, rhythmic hum of the coast informs the pace of daily life without ever overwhelming the silence of the inland meadows.

About This Fairfield Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fairfield, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.20539, -74.213755. 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 Fairfield includes the ZIP code (07727, 07004), telephone area code (732, 848, 201, 551), county seat of Monmouth County (Freehold), 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.
