How to Use This Germania, New Jersey Map

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

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 Germania, New Jersey

Germania is a locality in Atlantic County, New Jersey, United States. It is a small community with a population of 297. The population density is 43.7 people per km². Germania is located at 39.5118°N, 74.5993°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 08215.

Germania emerges from the flat, sandy expanse of the coastal plain as a quiet convergence of dark woodlands and open, sky-swept horizons. It lies 4.8 miles north-northeast of McKee City, NJ (from McKee City, NJ: bearing 27°T), and is situated 7.7 miles west of Galloway. The landscape is defined by the deliberate pulse of Elliots Creek, which snakes through the undergrowth, its tea-colored waters carrying the tannins of the surrounding pines toward the distant Atlantic Ocean. Here, the earth feels porous and ancient, a terrain where the Hirst Ponds Preserve anchors the immediate wild, offering a sanctuary of still water and marshy edges that hold the morning light in a thin, silver film. Though the peaks of Sandy Ridge remain merely a suggestion of blue on the western horizon, the local topography remains humble, dominated by a low-slung, scrubby timber that breathes a heavy, resinous scent into the humid air.

Germania carries the quiet weight of its origins, reflecting a heritage of industrious settlement that once sought to carve a lasting livelihood from these sandy soils. While the proximity to Egg Harbor City Lake provides a local focus for the rhythm of the day, the economy has long moved away from the agrarian ambitions of the past toward a more modest, scattered existence. The influence of the Green Bank State Forest nearby ensures that the wilderness is never truly suppressed, with the encroaching pines pressing against the edges of the roads and properties. Travelers passing toward the Hog Islands or the salt-tinged air of the coast find Germania to be a place of transition, where the silence of the woods balances the inevitable, distant pull of the tides.

About This Germania Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Germania, New Jersey. Coordinates: 39.511784, -74.599323. 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 Germania includes the ZIP code (08215), telephone area code (609, 640), county seat of Atlantic County (Mays Landing), and school district assignment (Galloway Township School District).

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.
