Explore Hazlet, New Jersey, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Hazlet, 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 Hazlet.
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.

Hazlet reveals its character through the winding path of the Chingarora Creek, which serves as a quiet pulse for the surrounding landscape. It lies 1.5 miles east-northeast of Aberdeen, NJ (from Aberdeen, NJ: bearing 62°T), and is situated 4.2 miles west-northwest of Middletown. The terrain here unfolds in subtle gradients, rising toward the gentle elevations of the Mount Pleasant Hills just a short distance away. Within the quiet expanse of the local geography, one finds the protected grounds of Maple Drive Park, a place where the air often carries a crisp, lingering scent of damp earth. While the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean remains ten miles to the east, the atmosphere retains a distinct salinity that softens the edges of the afternoon light. Residents often look toward the horizon where the land shifts, acknowledging the proximity of Lake Matawan, which mirrors the gray, shifting clouds of a New Jersey sky.
Hazlet grew from a landscape of deep-rooted agricultural traditions into a suburban anchor for those seeking a steady, industrious life. The local economy blossomed as the region transitioned from open fields to a hub of commerce and service, drawing strength from its connection to the wider transit arteries of the state. Small businesses and professional services now define the daily rhythm, reflecting a pragmatic spirit that prioritizes stability and long-term investment. This working-class heritage informs the way the streets are organized, favoring functional spaces that accommodate the needs of families and commuters alike. Even as the pace of development continues, the town maintains a focus on sustaining its commercial vitality and keeping its infrastructure resilient against the changing tides of the modern market.
Hazlet pulses with a quiet, persistent energy that finds expression in the everyday interactions of its people. The cultural identity of the area is tied to its accessibility, offering a balanced environment that respects both private life and the collective interest of its neighbors. Notable individuals like the musician Jon Bon Jovi have deep roots in this corner of the state, carrying the influence of its suburban environment into their creative work. Local festivals and community gatherings held in public spaces foster a sense of belonging, turning the mundane calendar into a series of shared experiences. Whether walking through the quiet trails of Maple Drive Park or observing the evening traffic, one senses a town that is comfortable in its own skin, unpretentious and firmly planted in its specific geography.

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.
