Explore Red Hill, South 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 Red Hill, 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 Red Hill.
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.

Red Hill sits amidst a landscape of pine-shadowed plains and heavy, humid earth that holds the heat long after the sun has slipped below the horizon. It lies 2.0 miles east-southeast of Conway, SC (from Conway, SC: bearing 122°T), and is situated 9.6 miles north of Socastee. The Waccamaw River winds through the low-lying terrain only a mile away, its dark, tannic waters carving a slow path through the dense vegetation of the Waccamaw National Wildlife Refuge that blankets the immediate surroundings. To the west, the flat expanse of Cates Bay waits seven miles off, a quiet depression in the land that catches the drainage of the fields, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Sand Ridge remains a faint suggestion on the horizon, nineteen miles removed from the immediate, moisture-thick air. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised purple, illuminating the way the tall grasses bend toward the stillness of Wadus Lake, which waits just two miles from the center of Red Hill in a state of perpetual, glassy calm.
Agriculture and the steady, quiet labor of the timber industry have defined the character of Red Hill for generations, anchoring a pace of life that respects the seasonal shifts of the soil and the rising damp of the swampy bottomlands. The local economy persists in the rhythm of small-scale enterprise and land management, drawing on a history of settlement that values resilience over rapid transformation. Life in Red Hill is marked by the deep, resonant drone of cicadas and the subtle, earthy scent of pine needles baking in the midday sun, a sensory reminder of the agrarian roots that continue to shape the community. While the world beyond the refuge edges forward with modern urgency, the people here maintain a deliberate focus on the practicalities of their surroundings, finding a quiet, persistent beauty in the way the land yields its bounty to those who know how to work it.

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.
