How to Use This Milford, New Jersey Map

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

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 Milford, New Jersey

Milford is a locality in Hunterdon County, New Jersey, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,232. The population density is 402.4 people per km².

Milford occupies a quiet stretch of land defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of the Hakihokake Creek as it carves through the verdant landscape toward the larger waterway bordering the state. It lies 9.5 miles west of Hunterdon, NJ (from Hunterdon, NJ: bearing 271°T), and is situated 10.0 miles south-southeast of Phillipsburg. The air here holds a distinct, cool density, particularly as dusk settles over the nearby Sweet Hollow, casting long, bruised shadows that deepen the green of the surrounding deciduous woods. While the distant silhouette of Old Hound Ridge provides a jagged anchor to the horizon, the immediate terrain remains defined by the intimate, low-lying topography of the interior. Residents often gather at the Milford Borough Athletic Facility, a space that serves as a communal clearing where the stillness of the inland afternoon is broken only by the sharp, localized sounds of play. Four miles away, the quiet surface of Lake Warren reflects the shifting clouds, offering a stillness that seems to permeate the very soil of the region.

Milford maintains a character forged by centuries of industrious movement, where the legacy of early milling and small-scale manufacturing still informs the modest architecture of the center. The local economy, once tethered to the power of the water, has transitioned into a quieter existence where the pace is dictated by the turning seasons rather than the demands of heavy industry. Walking the streets, one observes the remnants of a history that favored utility and endurance, with stone foundations and weathered brick facades standing as quiet witnesses to the generations who labored here. There is a palpable sense of continuity in the way the morning light catches the slate roofs, illuminating a place that has long since found a comfortable equilibrium away from the frantic sprawl of the urban corridor. Even as the modern world shifts, Milford retains a stubborn, understated dignity, anchored by the land and the simple, persistent cycle of the creek.

About This Milford Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Milford, New Jersey. Coordinates: 40.568713, -75.094617. 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 Milford includes the ZIP code (08848), telephone area code (908), county seat of Hunterdon County (Flemington), and school district assignment (Delaware Valley Regional 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.
