How to Use This Colonial Heights, Tennessee Map

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

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 Colonial Heights, Tennessee

Colonial Heights is a locality in Sullivan County, Tennessee, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,055. The population density is 308.6 people per km². Colonial Heights is located at 36.4945°N, 82.4906°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 37663.

Colonial Heights occupies a quiet expanse of land where the persistent flow of Kendrick Creek defines the movement of the earth. It lies 5.5 miles southeast of Kingsport, TN (from Kingsport, TN: bearing 143°T), and is situated 8.8 miles west of Sullivan. The horizon captures the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains, serving as a permanent backdrop to the modest elevation of the terrain. Nearby, the stillness of Fort Patrick Henry Lake provides a cool, reflective surface that anchors the surrounding woodlands, while the nearby Rock Springs Valley dips into a gentle, fertile depression. The atmosphere here carries the weight of inland air, often heavy with the scent of damp soil and deciduous leaves as the light of late afternoon catches the tall grasses along the banks.

Colonial Heights maintains a steady, deliberate pace of life, deeply connected to the recreational legacy of Warriors Path. The economy reflects a blend of residential stability and the regional trade common to this part of the state, where the history of early settlement still informs the layout of the roads and the character of the neighborhood. While the rush of modern transit hums nearby, the local rhythm is dictated by the turning of the seasons and the quietude of the basin. Residents often travel toward the sound of water, perhaps venturing as far as Monkey Falls to witness the cascade, yet the daily reality remains rooted in the practical, enduring textures of a landlocked landscape that values the quiet persistence of its own geography.

About This Colonial Heights Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Colonial Heights, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.49445, -82.490623. 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 Colonial Heights includes the ZIP code (37663), telephone area code (731), county seat of Sullivan County (Blountville), and school district assignment (Sullivan 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.
