How to Use This Oakland, Tennessee Map

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

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.

Oakland anchors itself upon the fertile, undulating terrain of Tennessee, where the pulse of the landscape is defined by the steady, persistent flow of Bledsoe Creek. It lies 3.4 miles east of Trousdale, TN (from Trousdale, TN: bearing 90°T), and is situated 5.9 miles east of Gallatin. The earth here holds a quiet weight, its soil dark and receptive, supporting pockets of dense woodland that break the monotony of open fields. Light at dusk possesses a singular, amber clarity, catching the edges of the leaves and casting long, thin shadows that stretch toward Mutton Hollow in the distance. The air maintains a crisp, inland quality, devoid of any maritime influence, circulating instead with the scent of damp loam and the subtle, earthen musk of the region’s expansive, landlocked interior.

History in Oakland remains tied to the slow, deliberate transition from agrarian roots to the measured expansion of modern residential life. The local economy thrives on a quiet diligence, balancing the demands of growth with a respect for the surrounding natural spaces, such as the proximity of Old Hickory Recreation Area. Residents often look toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains when the horizon clears, a reminder of the vast, varied geography that defines the state. Life here moves with a rhythm dictated by the seasons rather than the clock, reflecting a community that values the solidity of its grounds and the preservation of the open, verdant spaces that define the character of Oakland.

About This Oakland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Oakland, Tennessee. Coordinates: 35.226102, -89.538172. 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 Oakland includes the ZIP code (37681, 37087, 38060), telephone area code (615, 629, 901), county seat of Sumner County (Gallatin), and school district assignment (Fayette 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.
