Explore Woodbury Heights, 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 Woodbury Heights, 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 Woodbury Heights.
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.

Woodbury Heights emerges from the flat, inland plains of New Jersey as a quiet intersection of residential streets and verdant, low-lying woodland. It lies 1.5 miles south of Woodbury, NJ (from Woodbury, NJ: bearing 185°T), and is situated 9.4 miles south of Philadelphia. Hesters Branch carves a narrow, winding path through the local terrain, its steady flow defining the edges of the landscape where the soil remains damp and heavy with the scent of damp earth. The horizon is punctuated by the distant, faint silhouette of Pine Hill, while the immediate surroundings are anchored by the open, manicured lawns of the Helen Avenue Sports Complex. Here, the quality of light at dusk possesses a peculiar, amber clarity, casting long, lean shadows across the asphalt and turning the canopy of local hardwoods into a deep, bruised violet against the darkening sky.
Woodbury Heights functions as a residential enclave where the rhythms of daily life are tethered to the pulse of the surrounding regional economy rather than any singular industry. The development of these lands reflects a history of steady, incremental expansion, transforming former agricultural plots into the interconnected neighborhoods that characterize the present day. Residents often look toward the broader expanse of the region, acknowledging the proximity of the distant League Island basin as a reminder of the complex, industrial topography that defines this part of the state. Life in Woodbury Heights moves with a measured, deliberate pace, where the sound of children at play near the Helen Avenue Sports Complex provides a constant, human cadence to the stillness of the afternoon.

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.
