How to Use This Fairmount, Tennessee Map

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

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 Fairmount, Tennessee

Fairmount is a locality in Sullivan County, Tennessee, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,193. The population density is 202.1 people per km². Fairmount is located at 35.1865°N, 85.3302°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 37620, 37377.

Fairmount reveals itself through the steady, insistent murmur of Cedar Creek as it carves a path through the dense, verdant undergrowth. It lies 1.2 miles southeast of Bristol, TN (from Bristol, TN: bearing 125°T), and is situated 7.8 miles northeast of Hamilton. The land here rises in slow, deliberate swells, a landscape defined by the heavy green of hardwood forests and the deep, rich loam that holds the afternoon heat long after the sun has slipped behind the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Within the quiet expanse of Fairmount Park, the air carries a mineral sharpness, a scent of damp earth and cooling stone that lingers in the shadows of the oaks. Two miles to the west, the quiet basin of Bear Hollow creates a natural catchment for the morning mist, while the nearby waters of Middlebrook Lake offer a still, reflective surface that mirrors the shifting clouds of the Tennessee sky.

Fairmount maintains a rhythm dictated by the land’s enduring capacity for sustenance and the quiet labor of its people. The local economy has long leaned upon the stability of the soil, with the town’s character shaped by generations who have understood the subtle shifts in the seasons and the demands of the harvest. History here is not written in grand monuments but in the persistent work of those who navigate the rural roads and manage the timbered tracts that border the creek. While the distant, thundering descent of Abrams Falls draws those who seek the spectacle of moving water, life in Fairmount favors the deliberate pace of the interior, marked by the simple, functional architecture of a place that values utility over ornament. Residents move with the steady confidence of those accustomed to the topography, finding a quiet, grounded satisfaction in the permanence of the ridge and the constant, rhythmic flow of the water passing through the woods.

About This Fairmount Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fairmount, Tennessee. Coordinates: 35.186456, -85.330236. 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 Fairmount includes the ZIP code (37620, 37377), telephone area code (731, 615), county seat of Sullivan County (Blountville), 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.
