Explore Runnemede, 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 Runnemede, 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 Runnemede.
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.

Runnemede maintains a steady internal gravity, anchored by a landscape defined by its distance from the coast and its reliance on the quiet, inland rhythms of the region. It lies 1.8 miles southeast of Bellmawr, NJ (from Bellmawr, NJ: bearing 127°T), and is situated 8.6 miles southeast of Philadelphia. The terrain here unfolds in subtle, unassuming slopes, far removed from the dramatic heights of Sandy Ridge that mark the distant horizon. Water defines the edges of the local geography, with Beaver Brook carving a modest path through the earth just one mile away. Residents often find a moment of stillness near Runnemede Lake, a quiet body of water that mirrors the changing light of the seasons. The ground beneath the Baseball Fields serves as a central point for community activity, keeping the pace of life grounded in the daily motion of neighbors.
Runnemede holds a history rooted in the steady development of a residential borough that grew alongside the industrial expansion of the surrounding region. The local economy shifted over generations from early agricultural roots toward the diverse service and trade sectors that now sustain the daily lives of its people. Many residents commute to nearby employment hubs, leaving the quiet streets of Runnemede to hum with a different energy during the working day. Small businesses provide the essential fiber of the local commerce, operating with a persistence that reflects the broader work ethic of the state. Even as regional industries evolve, the borough retains a sense of self-sufficiency, balancing the demands of modern life with the preservation of its established residential character.
Cultural life in Runnemede is expressed through the shared experiences of its people, who gather at the Baseball Fields to mark the passing of the year. The community values a straightforward approach to living, where the quietude of the evening is punctuated by the sounds of local sports and neighborhood traditions. While the town is not defined by grand monuments, the presence of Wharton State Forest to the southeast offers a vast, untamed counterpoint to the suburban density of the vicinity. Residents occasionally look toward the direction of League Island, acknowledging the complex geological basin that shapes the wider regional drainage. Notable individuals like the musician Kevin Eubanks have roots in the area, carrying the influence of these streets into the broader national consciousness. The atmosphere remains one of honest, unadorned daily existence, where the changing colors of the trees offer a natural rhythm to the passing years.

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.
