How to Use This Gibbstown, New Jersey Map

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

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 Gibbstown, New Jersey

Gibbstown is a locality in Gloucester County, New Jersey, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,822. The population density is 898.2 people per km². Gibbstown is located at 39.8251°N, 75.2835°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 08027.

Gibbstown reveals itself through a low, flat horizon where the persistent, dark ribbon of Nehonsey Brook carves a quiet path through the soil. It lies 3.4 miles northwest of East Greenwich, NJ (from East Greenwich, NJ: bearing 315°T), and is situated 7.2 miles south of Upper Darby. The land here holds a heavy, damp quality, defined by wide plains that stretch toward the distance where the silhouette of Lemon Hill marks the edge of the sky. Within these borders, the North School Street Recreation offers a spare, open expanse of grass that catches the amber light of late afternoon, grounding the neighborhood in a stillness that feels both ancient and industrious. The air carries the scent of turned earth and the faint, metallic tang of an economy built on the movement of freight and the steady hum of manufacturing, a landscape where the ground seems to absorb the weight of every passing vehicle.

History in Gibbstown remains visible in the sturdy, utilitarian architecture that echoes the labor of generations who settled near the fertile, inland plains. Unlike regions defined by tourism or leisure, the local character is forged by a persistent work ethic, with the nearby basin of Mud Island serving as a reminder of the area’s geologic depth. Residents often look toward the quiet waters of Phillips Pond when they seek a moment of reflection, finding a stark, simple beauty in the way the water mirrors the shifting gray of the clouds. Gibbstown persists as a place of deliberate function, where the rhythm of the day is measured not by passing seasons or transient visitors, but by the honest, unadorned pulse of a community that has long understood the value of holding its ground.

About This Gibbstown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gibbstown, New Jersey. Coordinates: 39.825113, -75.283519. 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 Gibbstown includes the ZIP code (08027), telephone area code (856, 609), county seat of Gloucester County (Woodbury), and school district assignment (Greenwich 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.
