Explore Washington Gloucester County, 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 Washington Gloucester County, 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 Washington Gloucester County.
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.

Washington Gloucester County exists as a quiet expanse of inland terrain defined by the steady, persistent flow of the South Branch Big Timber Creek. It lies 3.4 miles west-southwest of Pine Hill, NJ (from Pine Hill, NJ: bearing 240°T), and is situated 4.7 miles northeast of Gloucester. The landscape maintains a subtle, verdant quality, marked by the proximity of Bells Lake, which offers a reflective stillness to the surrounding woods. To the far horizon, the faint silhouette of Sandy Ridge provides a distant boundary to the otherwise gentle, terrestrial plains. Residents often find that the light at dusk settles heavily upon the trees, casting long, deliberate shadows that lend the land a meditative depth. This regional topography, far removed from the turbulent edges of the continent, retains a grounded, earthy character throughout the changing seasons.
Washington Gloucester County carries the weight of a long-standing regional history, having evolved from early agrarian roots into a modern residential landscape. Local economic life remains anchored by a blend of service-oriented industries and the steady commerce that sustains a suburban population. While the nearby Wharton State Forest serves as a reminder of the vast, untamed wilderness that once dominated this interior, the local economy has adapted to support the practical needs of its inhabitants. Businesses and small enterprises thrive here, reflecting a commitment to local growth that mirrors the industrious spirit of the broader region. The steady hum of daily work provides a rhythmic contrast to the natural quietude of the local fields and woodlands.
Washington Gloucester County fosters a cultural character defined by its accessible, community-focused life and the preservation of its immediate surroundings. Residents gather for local events within the borders of Dunleigh, where the land serves as a shared space for public connection and outdoor activity. While the area does not claim the fame of global icons, it maintains a pride in its quiet, consistent identity that avoids the frantic pace of larger urban centers. The architecture and public spaces reflect a functional simplicity, favoring utility and comfort over ornamental display. Life here moves with a deliberate, unassuming pace, allowing for a sense of belonging that is rarely found in more transient environments.

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.
