How to Use This East Ridge, Tennessee Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for East Ridge, 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 East Ridge.
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.

ZIP codes: 37411, 37814, 37601.East Ridge occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, quiet movement of Sinking Creek as it carves through the limestone foundations of the region. It lies 1.4 miles east-northeast of Johnson City, TN (from Johnson City, TN: bearing 73°T), and is situated 6.9 miles west-southwest of Elizabethton. The terrain here holds the weight of the earth, where the moisture of the land gathers in the low-lying basin of Hootowl Hollow, keeping the soil dark and dense under the canopy of local hardwoods. At Jacobs Nature Park At Sinking Creek, the air carries a crisp, mineral edge that lingers even as the sun begins to fade behind the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains. The light at twilight settles into a bruised purple hue, illuminating the subtle transitions between the flat plains and the rising gradients that characterize the topography of East Ridge.
Economic life in East Ridge reflects the industrious, pragmatic spirit of a populace that has long balanced the demands of modern commerce with the preservation of its natural borders. While Boone Lake lies a short distance away, the pulse of the local economy remains tied to the steady rhythm of inland trade and the evolving needs of its residents. History is written not in grand monuments, but in the enduring utility of the land and the quiet trails that connect neighbors to the environment, such as the path toward the Pinnacle Tower Trail. Life here moves with the measured pace of a region that honors its connection to the inland waterways and the deep, silent history of the surrounding hills, ensuring that the character of the place remains firmly rooted in the Tennessee soil.

About This East Ridge Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of East Ridge, Tennessee. Coordinates: 34.997302, -85.228507. 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 East Ridge includes the ZIP code (37411, 37814, 37601), telephone area code (731, 615), county seat of Washington County (Jonesborough), and school district assignment (Hamilton 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.
