How to Use This Lakeland, Tennessee Map

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

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.

Lakeland occupies a quiet expanse of land where the horizon settles into a flat, deliberate clarity. It lies 5.6 miles north-northeast of Cordova, TN (from Cordova, TN: bearing 21°T), and is situated 7.8 miles east-northeast of Bartlett. The terrain around Lakeland offers a soft, terrestrial stillness, marked by the presence of Lakeland Lake which anchors the local topography. A mile away, the waters of Oliver Creek move with a slow, purposeful gravity through the woods. Further out, the distant silhouette of Pecan Ridge provides a thin, gray line against the western sky. On calm evenings, the light catches the low-lying moisture in the air, casting long shadows that stretch across the open fields.

Lakeland grew from a landscape defined by the steady work of the soil and the quiet expansion of regional commerce. The local economy relies on a mixture of established residential growth and the professional sectors that define the broader reach of the county. Men and women here engage in the rhythms of daily industry, building livelihoods that mirror the persistence of the surrounding woodlands. The nearby Spain Bottom serves as a reminder of the fertile, low-lying basins that once dictated the movement of early settlers and their trade. Through the decades, Lakeland has maintained a focus on steady, measured development that respects the character of the land.

Lakeland fosters a spirit of communal patience, where the pace of life favors the deliberate over the frantic. Windward Slopes Park offers a place for residents to walk under the canopy of native trees, grounding the day in the physical reality of the earth. The cultural life of the area remains tied to the schools and local gatherings that bring neighbors together under the wide, unencumbered sky. While the region shares the musical heritage of the western part of the state, its true identity is found in the quietude of its neighborhoods. Individuals who have shaped the broader cultural landscape often find in such places the necessary space to cultivate their own unique contributions to the arts and sciences.

About This Lakeland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lakeland, Tennessee. Coordinates: 35.25622, -89.72667. 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 Lakeland includes the ZIP code (38002), telephone area code (901), county seat of Shelby County (Memphis), and school district assignment (Lakeland School System 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.
