How to Use This Woolwich, New Jersey Map

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

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.

Woolwich possesses a landscape defined by an expansive, quiet inland terrain that stretches across the plains of New Jersey. It lies 5.9 miles southwest of East Greenwich, NJ (from East Greenwich, NJ: bearing 232°T), and is situated 7.9 miles south-southeast of Chester. The horizon remains broad and open, occasionally interrupted by the distant, hazy silhouette of the South Valley Hills visible far to the west. Residents often find respite in the local greenery of Locke Avenue Park, which serves as a central point for community gathering. Nearby, the water of Lake Narraticon offers a still, reflective surface, while the gentle flow of Church Run threads through the soil to nourish the surrounding fields. The air here carries a crisp, terrestrial clarity, particularly as the evening light settles over the wide, flat expanses of the township.

Woolwich traces its origins to a rural foundation that has gradually transitioned into a landscape of balanced residential and commercial growth. Agriculture remains a deep, quiet presence in the local consciousness, though modern industries have found a place within the expanding logistics and warehousing sectors. This shift has altered the rhythm of the day, bringing a steady hum of activity to the corridors that connect the inland districts. Despite the arrival of new construction, the legacy of the early settlers persists in the way the land is still parceled and worked. The local economy relies on this blend of legacy farming and contemporary transit, reflecting a pragmatic approach to the changing needs of the region.

Woolwich fosters a character rooted in the straightforward, deliberate pace of those who appreciate the space provided by its geography. While it does not claim the fame of major urban centers, the locality maintains a steady, self-contained identity that favors communal stability over rapid change. The area is largely defined by the everyday experiences of its inhabitants rather than grand monuments or the presence of global celebrities. People take satisfaction in the accessibility of the outdoors, utilizing the recreational space at Locke Avenue Park to observe the seasonal changes in the vegetation. It is a place where the focus remains on the immediate surroundings, maintaining a grounded atmosphere that values the quiet continuity of life away from the intensity of the coast.

About This Woolwich Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Woolwich, New Jersey. Coordinates: 39.738218, -75.325379. 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 Woolwich includes the ZIP code (08085), telephone area code (856, 609), county seat of Gloucester County (Woodbury), and school district assignment.

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.
