How to Use This Charlotte, Tennessee Map

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

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.

About Charlotte, Tennessee

Charlotte is a locality in Dickson County, Tennessee, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,656. The population density is 157.6 people per km². Charlotte is located at 36.1773°N, 87.3397°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Charlotte is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 37036.

Charlotte remains a quiet anchor of the Middle Tennessee landscape, where the persistent Town Branch carves a narrow, winding path through the local topography. It lies 7.4 miles north-northeast of Dickson, TN (from Dickson, TN: bearing 21°T), and is situated 8.2 miles northwest of White Bluff. The earth here possesses a deep, iron-rich hue, supporting dense thickets of hardwood that soften the transition toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Backbone Ridge. Sunlight often catches the sediment in the water, giving the creek a bruised, metallic sheen as it slips past the town’s foundations. Five miles to the south, the terrain dips into the sheltered expanse of Harris Hollow, a place where the air hangs heavy and cool, untouched by the swifter currents of the plateau above.

Charlotte preserves the gravity of its early settlement, serving as a seat of governance that has long anchored the surrounding agricultural life. The local economy relies on the steady rhythm of the land, with the nearby Montgomery Bell providing a sprawling expanse of forest that defines the regional character far more than any modern industry. Residents look toward the quiet waters of Stewarts Lake for respite, a body of water that mirrors the muted, slate-gray skies of the changing seasons. Life in Charlotte follows the patient cycle of the soil, marked by the slow expansion of timber and the enduring presence of historic architecture that stands firmly against the encroachment of time.

About This Charlotte Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Charlotte, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.17728, -87.339732. 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 Charlotte includes the ZIP code (37036), telephone area code (615, 629), county seat of Dickson County (Charlotte), and school district assignment (Dickson County School District).

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.
