Explore West Deptford, 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 West Deptford, 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 West Deptford.
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.

West Deptford defines its character through the quiet, purposeful movement of water and land that stretches far inland from any distant shore. It lies 2.1 miles west of Woodbury, NJ (from Woodbury, NJ: bearing 281°T), and is situated 7.6 miles south-southwest of Philadelphia. The Main Ditch carves a path through the landscape, serving as a silent, persistent presence that organizes the flow of the local terrain. Beyond this channel, the earth levels out into an expanse of plains and woodland, providing a sturdy foundation for the homes and roads that define the region. Eight miles away, the waters of Phillips Pond offer a still, reflective contrast to the more active drainage of the fields. To the north, the elevation rises slightly toward the distant silhouette of Lemon Hill, which marks the horizon with a steady, grounding weight.
West Deptford carries a legacy built upon the practical realities of industrial labor and the steady development of a hardworking society. The local economy has long been tethered to the industrious use of the land, with manufacturing and logistics forming the backbone of its prosperity. Workers transition through their days with a rhythm dictated by the demands of regional commerce, maintaining a focus on productivity that honors the area's history of trade. This industrious spirit is mirrored in the way the town manages its resources, keeping a careful eye on the balance between growth and the preservation of its essential infrastructure. Even as the modern world shifts, West Deptford retains a grounded approach to business, valuing the reliability of its existing industries and the people who keep them running.
Life in West Deptford finds its social center at Little League, a space where the community gathers to watch the next generation test their skills on the diamond. This local landmark serves as a focal point for the spirit of the neighborhood, drawing families together under the golden, late-afternoon light that often settles over the fields. The cultural character of the region is defined by a modest, neighborly grace, where residents prioritize the shared experience of daily life over grand displays. While the nearby basin of Mud Island offers a reminder of the area’s geologic origins, the focus remains firmly on the present, with youth sports and local gatherings anchoring the calendar. Notable figures like the former professional baseball player Mike Trout have emerged from this environment, carrying the disciplined, straightforward values of their upbringing into the wider world.

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.
