How to Use This Florence, New Jersey Map

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

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 Florence, New Jersey

Florence is a locality in Burlington County, New Jersey, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,704. The population density is 1454.1 people per km². Florence is located at 40.1192°N, 74.8088°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 08009, 08518.

Florence remains defined by the steady, rhythmic presence of the Delaware River as it carves a path through the landscape. It lies 4.6 miles northeast of Burlington, NJ (from Burlington, NJ: bearing 43°T), and is situated 7.5 miles south-southwest of Trenton. The terrain surrounding Florence consists of low-lying plains and gentle transitions that extend toward the distant, modest rise of Turkey Hill. Residents often gather at Waterworks Park, a local green space that serves as a quiet transition between the built environment and the open earth. A short distance away, the quiet waters of Van Sciver Lake mirror the shifting sky, offering a sense of stillness that contrasts with the movement of the nearby waterway. The air here carries the scent of damp soil and river silt, a reminder of the inland geography that shapes the daily experience of the residents.

Florence grew from a foundation of industrious labor, with its history deeply tethered to the manufacturing legacy of the Delaware River corridor. Early iron works and pipe foundries once defined the skyline, turning the local economy toward the production of heavy goods that helped build the surrounding region. While the grand scale of those early industries has evolved into a more modern, diversified economic landscape, the remnants of that era persist in the sturdy architecture of the older districts. The transition from heavy production to contemporary commerce has been gradual, leaving the streets with a pragmatic, unpretentious character. People here maintain a focused, working-class sensibility that values continuity and the steady accumulation of progress over time.

The cultural identity of Florence is marked by a resilience that honors its industrial roots while looking toward the quiet stability of modern suburban life. Residents often congregate at local landmarks that tell the story of the region, emphasizing a shared history that bridges the gap between generations. While the pace of life remains measured, the community occasionally celebrates with events that highlight local craftsmanship and the enduring spirit of the neighborhood. The legendary performer Ernie Kovacs, a pioneer of early television comedy, spent his formative years in this region, leaving a trace of creative wit in the local lore. Even as the decades turn, Florence retains a distinct personality, grounded in the reality of its landscape and the straightforward nature of its people.

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.
