How to Use This Palmersville, Tennessee Map

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

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 Palmersville, Tennessee

Palmersville is a locality in Weakley County, Tennessee, United States. It is a small community with a population of 162. The population density is 21.7 people per km². Palmersville is located at 36.4034°N, 88.5873°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 38241.

Palmersville anchors itself firmly within the quiet, agrarian expanse of northwestern Tennessee, where the land unfolds in a series of gentle, undulating swells of earth that seem to breathe with the turning seasons. It lies 15.2 miles east-northeast of Martin, TN (from Martin, TN: bearing 74°T), and is situated 16.1 miles west-northwest of Paris. Mayo Branch cuts a modest, winding path through the soil just a mile from the center, its waters providing a steady, rhythmic pulse to the surrounding fields of soybeans and corn. The air here holds a particular, heavy sweetness at dusk, a quality of light that turns the distant horizon toward the faint outline of Pea Ridge into a bruised, violet haze. Beyond the immediate pastures, the landscape is defined by the steady presence of the land itself, an unpretentious stretch of territory that remains indifferent to the frantic pace of the wider world.

Palmersville retains an economy deeply rooted in the cycles of the harvest, where the labor of the fields dictates the rhythm of the day and the character of the people who work the loam. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Garrett Lake State Forest for a respite from the agricultural grind, or find a different kind of stillness near the quiet banks of Cypress Creek Number Five Lake. History in this corner of the state is not found in grand monuments, but in the persistent, quiet endurance of homesteads that have weathered generations of heat and frost. Life moves with a deliberate, measured gravity, reflecting a culture that values the slow maturation of the crop and the reliability of a long-standing neighbor more than the fleeting distractions of modern industry.

About This Palmersville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Palmersville, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.403393, -88.587273. 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 Palmersville includes the ZIP code (38241), telephone area code (901), county seat of Weakley County (Dresden), and school district assignment (Weakley 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.
