How to Use This Corryton, Tennessee Map

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

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 Corryton, Tennessee

Corryton is a locality in Knox County, Tennessee, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,800. The population density is 120.0 people per km². Corryton is located at 36.1537°N, 83.7824°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 37721.

Corryton emerges from the landscape as a quiet collection of fields and dwellings set against the rugged silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains, which loom on the distant horizon like a bruised, purple promise. It lies 10.0 miles north-northeast of Knox, TN (from Knox, TN: bearing 21°T), and is situated 6.7 miles north-northwest of Mascot. Little Flat Creek carves a thin, silver vein through the low-lying pastures, its waters moving with a deliberate, sluggish patience that mirrors the tempo of the surrounding countryside. Beyond the immediate reach of the scattered homesteads, the terrain deepens into the shaded folds of Wood Hollow, where the air holds a cooler, damp stillness long after the morning sun has claimed the meadows. To the west, the slopes of House Mountain Designated State Natural Area rise with a deliberate, rocky steepness, offering a stark verticality that anchors the sky above the expansive, open plains.

Corryton retains the character of an agrarian settlement, where the rhythms of the day are dictated by the shifting light across the pasture and the seasonal demands of the soil. While the local economy has transitioned away from the singular focus of its early farming roots, the landscape remains defined by the remnants of those older, industrious cycles, where the land once dictated the prosperity of each family. A short distance away, the quiet surface of Graveston Mill Pond captures the reflection of passing clouds, providing a mirror to the stillness that defines the region’s character. Life in Corryton moves with a measured, unadorned consistency, where the legacy of the past is not kept in museums but is instead felt in the wide, open spaces that separate the neighbors and the quiet, industrious hum of life that persists beneath the expansive Tennessee sky.

About This Corryton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Corryton, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.153694, -83.782406. 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 Corryton includes the ZIP code (37721), telephone area code (865), county seat of Knox County (Knoxville), and school district assignment.

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.
