How to Use This Nixon, Tennessee Map

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

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.

Nixon occupies a quiet stretch of land where the earth rises and falls in long, deliberate swells of pasture and timber. The horizon remains wide and open, broken only by the distant, jagged silhouette of Bee Rock Ridge that anchors the western sky. Nearby, the waters of Timberline Estates Lake hold the reflection of passing clouds, while the persistent, thin ribbon of Bethel Branch cuts through the terrain, carving a path toward the lower ground of Austin Hollow. The air here holds a distinct, heavy clarity, especially as the late afternoon light turns the tall grasses into shades of copper and pale straw.

Nixon maintains a rhythm dictated by the soil and the slow turning of the seasons, serving as a modest crossroads for those who work the surrounding acreage. The history of the land remains etched in the quietude of its fence lines and the weathered wood of older structures that have stood against the wind for generations. Residents look toward the nearby Walker Branch Hills Designated State Natural Area for a sense of permanence, finding in those protected woods a contrast to the cultivated fields that define the local economy. Whether traveling toward the mist-covered descent of Rainbow Falls or simply attending to the routine of daily maintenance, the people of Nixon carry themselves with the steady, unadorned focus of those who have long understood the character of their own ground.

About This Nixon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Nixon, Tennessee. Coordinates: 35.114806, -88.256706. 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 Nixon includes the ZIP code (38372), telephone area code (901), county seat of Hardin County (Savannah), and school district assignment (Hardin 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.
