Explore Ogden, North Carolina, 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 Ogden, North Carolina. 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 North Carolina 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 Ogden.
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.

Ogden occupies a quiet expanse of land where the humid breath of the coastal plain meets the shifting tides of the nearby Atlantic Ocean. It lies 2.3 miles southeast of Murraysville, NC (from Murraysville, NC: bearing 134°T), and is situated 7.9 miles east-northeast of Wilmington. The landscape remains defined by the gentle movement of water, particularly the tidal currents that flow through the winding channel of Howe Creek. Residents of Ogden find a sense of peace in the low-lying terrain, which stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Back Island on the horizon. The proximity to the salt-heavy air creates a unique atmosphere where the light at dusk appears to linger, casting a soft, golden hue over the dense greenery. Even without the elevation of distant mountain ranges, the flat, horizon-spanning vistas offer a vast sense of openness that defines the local aesthetic.
Ogden grew from its early connections to the maritime and agricultural sectors that traditionally anchored this part of the state. The local economy has evolved from these rustic roots into a diverse collection of modern services and small-scale commercial enterprises that support a growing population. Many individuals in Ogden participate in the regional workforce, balancing professional endeavors with the relaxed pace of life characteristic of the coast. While the industrial footprint remains modest, the area maintains a steady vitality supported by its strategic access to regional transit corridors. The influence of the broader commercial landscape is present, yet Ogden retains a grounded quality that prioritizes the stability of its residential and professional sectors.
Cultural life in Ogden centers around the shared appreciation for the outdoors and the accessibility of local recreational spaces. New Hanover County Park provides a vital gathering place for families and outdoor enthusiasts, serving as the primary hub for community interaction. Those seeking to explore the region often venture toward the Apache Trail, which invites hikers to experience the local flora and fauna at a measured, deliberate pace. Visitors might travel a short distance to see the serene waters of Greenfield Lake or spend a day enjoying the sandy expanse of Harbor Island. Although the area is not defined by the presence of global icons, the residents of Ogden carry a tradition of Southern hospitality that makes the atmosphere feel welcoming to any traveler who wanders through the neighborhood.

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.
