Explore Finley, Tennessee, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Finley, 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 Finley.
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.

Finley occupies a low, expansive stretch of the Mississippi embayment where the horizon feels pressed flat against the sky by the sheer weight of the atmosphere. It lies 5.3 miles west of Dyersburg, TN (from Dyersburg, TN: bearing 271°T), and is situated 14.6 miles southeast of Caruthersville. Crockett Creek carves a deliberate, muddy path through the silty earth, its sluggish flow serving as the primary pulse for the surrounding fields. Beyond the immediate flatlands, the terrain begins a slow, deliberate climb toward the distant silhouettes of Blow Ridge, which haunt the far western edge of the view like a frayed line of charcoal. During the humid peak of summer, the air in Finley thickens with the scent of damp soil and sun-warmed vegetation, creating a hazy, golden clarity that turns the afternoon light into something heavy and viscous. The landscape remains largely defined by the quietude of its agriculture, broken only by the occasional flight of birds moving toward the shade of trees near Evansville Park.
Agriculture serves as the skeletal framework of the local economy, with the orderly rows of crops extending toward Peck Hollow as if measured by a surveyor’s steady hand. The history of Finley is etched into the way the roads follow the contours of the drainage ditches and the legacy of the tenant farms that once populated the surrounding plains. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of the seasons, dictated by the planting and harvest cycles that have sustained the population for generations. While the presence of OFDBA Lake Site Number 60-6 offers a quiet respite for those seeking the stillness of the water, the true character of Finley resides in the persistent, unadorned labor of its people and the way they have adapted to the persistent, fertile gravity of the basin. The town exists as a persistent point of industry amidst the vast, reclaimed flatness, where the labor of the day is punctuated by the long, cooling shadows that stretch across the fields at dusk.

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.
