How to Use This Sunset Lake, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Sunset Lake reflects the amber light of the late afternoon across its still, shallow basin, anchoring a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the inland plains. It lies 1.6 miles north of Bridgeton, NJ (from Bridgeton, NJ: bearing 3°T), and is situated 6.3 miles south-southwest of Pittsgrove. The Cohansey River meanders through the surrounding terrain, its dark, nutrient-rich waters carving a slow path through the loamy soil that defines the regional topography. To the northwest, the distant profile of Cabin Ridge creates a jagged silhouette against the sky, a reminder of the rising elevations far beyond the level expanse of the local woods and fields. Near the water's edge, the Park Drive Tot Lot serves as a modest intersection of community activity, where the rhythmic creak of swings marks the passing hours against the backdrop of dense, temperate foliage.

History lingers in the soil here, where the legacy of agricultural industry shaped the growth of Sunset Lake from its early days of settlement into a quiet enclave of regional commerce. The economy remains tethered to the character of the land, drawing on the fertile earth and the steady, unhurried flow of the nearby river system to sustain its population. Life moves with a deliberate cadence, influenced by the seasonal shifts in the humidity and the deep, hushed quality of the air that settles between the trees at dusk. Residents navigate the modest infrastructure of their daily lives, finding a singular, understated beauty in the way the shadows lengthen across the flat horizon, affirming the presence of a place that values its own internal rhythm over the clamor of the wider world.

About This Sunset Lake Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sunset Lake, New Jersey. Coordinates: 39.450585, -75.232326. 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 Sunset Lake includes the ZIP code (08302), telephone area code (609, 640), county seat of Cumberland County (Bridgeton), and school district assignment (Cumberland 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.
