Explore Kimberlin Heights, 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 Kimberlin Heights, 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 Kimberlin Heights.
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.

Kimberlin Heights emerges from the landscape where the steady current of Gap Creek carves a path through the limestone-rich soil of the Tennessee interior. It lies 3.1 miles north-northwest of Seymour, TN (from Seymour, TN: bearing 332°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east-southeast of Knoxville. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the earth deepens into the shadows of Rackard Hollow, a topographical depression that holds the cool, damp air of the morning long after the sun has crested the distant Appalachian Mountains. The terrain here is defined by a persistent, quiet topography, where the land neither demands attention nor offers resistance, but instead settles into a rhythmic pattern of pasture and woodland. As dusk gathers, the quality of light softens against the trees, turning the horizon a muted, dusty violet that emphasizes the stillness of the fields.
History in Kimberlin Heights remains etched into the foundational stone of the local institutions and the long-established patterns of agrarian life. While the regional economy has shifted from early subsistence farming to a more modern, diverse blend of land management and proximity to the educational corridors of the nearby city, the character of the place retains a deliberate, measured pace. Residents find a singular respite at Seven Islands, a state park where the biodiversity of the riverbank offers a stark contrast to the quietude of private acreage. Further afield, the presence of Tinsley Pond serves as a localized anchor for the ecosystem, providing a gathering point for the wildlife that moves through the brush. Life in Kimberlin Heights is marked by the cycle of the seasons, where the primary rhythm is dictated not by the haste of industry, but by the slow, seasonal transformation of the woods and the persistent, unhurried flow of the water.

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.
