How to Use This Ellendale, Tennessee Map

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

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.

Ellendale marks a quiet intersection of land where the flat reaches of western Tennessee define the horizon. It lies 3.3 miles east-northeast of Bartlett, TN (from Bartlett, TN: bearing 56°T), and is situated 9.1 miles northeast of Shelby. Raner Creek winds its way through the landscape just a mile away, carving a path through the soil that dictates the flow of the local terrain. Beaver Lake sits four miles out, a still mirror reflecting the expansive sky that dominates the upper reaches of the region. The air here holds a particular weight at dusk, cooling rapidly as the shadows stretch across the open fields. Ellendale Park provides a central point of green space, offering a grounded perspective on the expanse of the surrounding plains.

Economic life in Ellendale grew from the roots of a traditional agrarian history, where the cycles of planting and harvest once dictated the movement of the day. The local industry has transitioned over time, moving from the labor of the fields toward the logistics and services that characterize the modern Delta region. Small enterprises and regional commerce form the current bedrock of the economy, replacing the older, labor-intensive methods of the past. The rhythm of work here is dictated by the steady pulse of nearby transit routes, which move goods across the state. Ellendale maintains a character defined by this shift, balancing the memory of its foundational soil with the demands of a contemporary workforce.

Cultural life in Ellendale moves with a deliberate, unhurried pace, favoring long-standing connections over the noise of denser metropolitan centers. The people here share a common language of endurance, shaped by the distinct climate that sees long, humid summers give way to mild, unpredictable winters. While the area does not claim the fame of the nearby music cities, it possesses a quiet integrity that persists in the routine of daily life. The landscape remains the primary landmark, with the gentle elevation changes leading toward the distant depression of Spain Bottom. Residents often find that the most significant moments occur in the simple transition from the heat of the afternoon to the sudden, cooling clarity of the evening light.

About This Ellendale Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ellendale, Tennessee. Coordinates: 35.230644, -89.825918. 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 Ellendale includes the ZIP code (38135, 38029), telephone area code (901), county seat of Shelby County (Memphis), 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.
