How to Use This Mount Vernon, Tennessee Map

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

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 Mount Vernon, Tennessee

Mount Vernon is a locality in Sumner County, Tennessee, United States. Mount Vernon is located at 36.0409°N, 86.1375°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 37060, 37777, 37184.

Mount Vernon occupies a quiet expanse of land where the earth rises and falls in long, muscular swells of clay and limestone. It lies 9.8 miles east-northeast of Sumner, TN (from Sumner, TN: bearing 63°T), and is situated 5.5 miles west-southwest of Westmoreland. The terrain here is defined by the steady, unhurried persistence of Middle Fork Drakes Creek, which carves a narrow, winding path through the local topography, feeding the moisture that keeps the surrounding woods dense and verdant. Beyond the immediate reach of the soil, the horizon remains stubbornly flat, though the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains occasionally haunts the eastern edge of the sky on the clearest days. Deep in the quietude of the land, Duffer Hollow acts as a natural basin, gathering the morning mist that clings to the tree lines long after the sun has climbed high enough to bake the fields.

Mount Vernon retains the character of an old agrarian outpost, a place where the economy has long been tethered to the patient yield of the soil and the seasonal cycles of local timber and crop. The influence of the land remains palpable, as seen in the preservation efforts at Taylor Hollow Fee, where the native flora is allowed to reclaim its own space, undisturbed by the press of modern industry. Life in Mount Vernon moves in rhythm with the daylight, punctuated by the occasional traveler passing toward the quiet waters of Meadowbrook Game Farm Lake. There is a singular, heavy stillness to the air here at dusk, a quality of light that turns the gray fence posts to silver and reminds those who remain that the history of this place is written in the slow, deliberate work of the hands that farm it.

About This Mount Vernon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Mount Vernon, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.040893, -86.13749. 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 Mount Vernon includes the ZIP code (37060, 37777, 37184), telephone area code (615, 901), county seat of Sumner County (Gallatin), and school district assignment.

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.
