How to Use This Erin, Tennessee Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Erin, 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 Erin.
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 Erin, Tennessee
Erin is a locality in Houston County, Tennessee, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,224. The population density is 121.3 people per km². Erin is located at 36.3184°N, 87.6947°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Erin is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 37061.Erin anchors itself in the verdant, rolling landscape of Middle Tennessee, defined by the persistent, winding path of the Erin Branch that carves through the local terrain. It lies 8.2 miles east of Stewart, TN (from Stewart, TN: bearing 91°T), and is situated 14.5 miles west of Marion. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness, often lingering in the low-lying basin of Owl Hollow where the morning light turns a pale, bruised violet. To the west, the silhouettes of Arlington Ridge rise against the sky, acting as a silent, jagged sentinel over the quiet expanses of farmland. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the deeper timber of Stewart State Forest offers a dense, shadowed sanctuary, while the nearby expanse of Lake Barkley provides a wide, glassy interruption to the otherwise rhythmic rise and fall of the earth.
Erin carries the weight of a history built upon the steady labor of the land and the resilience of those who settled these interior reaches. The local economy persists through a grounded dedication to forestry and agriculture, echoing the quiet industry that has long defined the pulse of the region. Visitors often gravitate toward the Barkley Recreation Area, finding in its managed groves and open spaces a respite from the quickening pace of the world outside. Life in Erin moves with a deliberate, measured cadence, observed in the way the sun catches the dust on a porch or the way the evening shadows stretch across the fields, signaling a day’s end that feels both ancient and entirely immediate.

About This Erin Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Erin, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.318388, -87.694741. 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 Erin includes the ZIP code (37061), telephone area code (615, 629), county seat of Houston County (Erin), and school district assignment (Houston 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.
