How to Use This Gillette, New Jersey Map

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

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 Gillette, New Jersey

Gillette is a locality in Morris County, New Jersey, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,956. The population density is 264.0 people per km². Gillette is located at 40.6952°N, 74.4569°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 07933.

Gillette anchors itself firmly within the verdant, inland corridors of the region, where the Passaic River winds through the low-lying terrain like a slow-moving pulse. It lies 1.4 miles west-southwest of Berkeley Heights, NJ (from Berkeley Heights, NJ: bearing 242°T), and is situated 9.4 miles west of Union County. The Passaic River County Park serves as a sprawling, green threshold at the center of the landscape, offering a quiet expanse of meadows and thickets that absorb the afternoon light until it turns a deep, bruised gold. Beyond the immediate banks, the earth rises toward the distant, immutable silhouette of Long Hill, which guards the horizon and gives the local topography a sense of contained, heavy stillness. The air here holds the damp, earthy scent of river sediment and cooling soil, a reminder that the land is shaped by the persistent, unhurried work of water flowing through the basin.

Gillette remains defined by its quiet transition from a legacy of rural industry to the measured pace of contemporary life, where the rhythm of the day is dictated by the passage of commuters and the changing seasons. The economy has long since shifted from the agrarian roots that once marked these plains, yet the influence of that history persists in the sprawling residential plots and the lingering, deliberate character of the neighborhood. While Best Lake remains a singular point of calm three miles away, the daily existence of those living in Gillette is tied more closely to the terrestrial quietude of the surrounding woodlands. It is a place where the modern world feels attenuated, filtered through the rustle of trees and the steady, unremarkable endurance of a location that prefers to keep its own counsel.

About This Gillette Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gillette, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.695179, -74.456871. 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 Gillette includes the ZIP code (07933), telephone area code (908), county seat of Morris County (Morristown), and school district assignment (Long Hill 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.
