Explore Perrineville, 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 Perrineville, 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 Perrineville.
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.

Perrineville occupies a quiet expanse of inland terrain where the low, persistent murmur of the Rocky Brook defines the movement of the earth. It lies 3.1 miles southwest of Manalapan, NJ (from Manalapan, NJ: bearing 230°T), and is situated 6.4 miles south of Monroe Middlesex County. The landscape here is characterized by a deliberate, patient flatness, punctuated by the quiet surface of Perrineville Lake, which holds the amber reflection of the autumn leaves in its still, shallow basin. On the clearest days, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Mount Pleasant Hills marks the horizon, a faint reminder of the world beyond these immediate, wooded corridors. The air carries a scent of damp soil and ancient leaf mold, a heavy, grounding fragrance that seems to slow the passage of time as it drifts across the fields and toward the deeper, more shadowed reaches of Jackson State Forest.
Perrineville has evolved from its early roots as a modest agrarian settlement, its history written in the slow transition from working farms to the quiet, dispersed residential life that persists today. While the local economy no longer relies on the heavy tilling of the soil that once shaped the region’s boundaries, the legacy of that labor remains evident in the wide, open spaces and the unhurried pace of the residents who traverse its roads. Perrineville Lake Park serves as a focal point for the locality, offering a necessary pause in the everyday rhythm where the water’s edge invites a singular, reflective silence. It is a place that favors the interior life, where the industry of the past has quieted into a steady, unremarkable endurance, leaving the land to settle into its own modest and enduring character.

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.
