Explore Blountville, Tennessee, 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 Blountville, Tennessee. 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 Tennessee 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 Blountville.
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.

Blountville occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, winding course of Muddy Creek as it carves through the fertile terrain of the upper Tennessee valley. It lies 2.9 miles north-northeast of Sullivan, TN (from Sullivan, TN: bearing 20°T), and is situated 4.3 miles west-northwest of Hamilton. Sunlight catches the low-lying mist that frequently settles in Leonard Hollow, casting a pale, pearlescent quality over the fields that stretch toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Beyond the immediate banks of the creek, the land rises into subtle, verdant swells, maintaining a quiet stillness that suggests the slow, deliberate work of geological time. The proximity of Boone Lake, only a few miles away, introduces a broad, reflective stillness to the air, tempering the warmth of summer afternoons and grounding the horizon in a deep, cool blue.
Blountville preserves a legacy as one of the oldest settlements in the region, its character forged by a history of frontier governance and agricultural persistence that persists in the layout of its quiet, purposeful streets. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the land and the modest commerce of a seat of government, where the pace of daily affairs is measured by the steady movement of traffic and the changing seasons rather than the frantic pulse of the modern city. Residents often look toward the nearby City Of Bristol for a broader scope of recreation, yet Blountville retains a distinct, solitary identity, marked by brick facades and the enduring quietude of its residential lanes. During the transition of dusk, the shadows lengthen across the valley floor, highlighting the intersection of human industry and the natural resilience that has defined Blountville since its earliest days.

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.
