How to Use This Jackson, South Carolina Map

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

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.

Jackson occupies a quiet expanse of inland South Carolina, where the terrain settles into a modest, rhythmic landscape of pine-dusted earth and sun-warmed clay. It lies 15.9 miles southeast of North Augusta, SC (from North Augusta, SC: bearing 140°T), and is situated 8.9 miles southwest of New Ellenton. Sunlight filters through the canopy in thin, slanted bars during the late afternoon, illuminating the fine dust that rises from the quiet roads. The land here remains unassuming, defined by the steady presence of Hollow Creek, which winds its way through the undergrowth just two miles away. Beyond the immediate perimeter, the horizon occasionally holds the faint, blurred suggestion of Clubhouse Ridge, a silent sentinel marking the distance to the west. Within the town limits, the John R Harvey Memorial Park provides a central clearing where the grass holds the heavy, humid heat of the day long after the shadows have lengthened.

Jackson evolved from a modest settlement into a place tethered to the industrious pulse of the surrounding region, maintaining a character defined by its proximity to larger industrial operations and the quiet persistence of its inhabitants. Life moves at a deliberate pace, far removed from the bustle of the coast, with the local economy reflecting a long-standing integration with the regional workforce. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Graymare Hollow, a gentle depression in the land that captures the cooling evening air. On weekends, the local interest turns toward the quiet waters of Wasteway Pond, where the surface remains largely undisturbed, reflecting the dense wall of trees that guard its perimeter. The history of Jackson is etched not in grand monuments, but in the enduring way the community gathers under the wide, pale sky, watching the seasons change the color of the fields from a vibrant, scrubby green to the muted, dusty browns of late autumn.

About This Jackson Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jackson, South Carolina. Coordinates: 33.328575, -81.792015. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

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.
