Explore Sharon, Tennessee, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sharon, 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 Sharon.
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.

Sharon occupies a landscape of quiet, flat expanses where the earth holds the dark, fertile memory of the Mississippi embayment. It lies 7.7 miles south of Martin, TN (from Martin, TN: bearing 169°T), and is situated 7.6 miles west-southwest of Dresden. The horizon stretches wide and unobstructed, defined by the slow, deliberate movement of the sky above fields that transition from the amber hues of harvest to the deep, turned-soil brown of winter. To the west, the sluggish, persistent flow of the Middle Fork Obion River traces a path through the low-lying terrain, while the nearby Obion River Wildlife Management Area provides a sanctuary where the silence is broken only by the sudden, sharp rustle of wings in the canopy. On the perimeter of these fields, the calm, glassy surface of Mud Creek Watershed Lake Number Seventeen reflects the shifting light of the afternoon, acting as a mirror for the cottonwood and sycamore trees that stand sentinel along its banks.
Sharon maintains a rhythm tethered to the seasonal cycles of its agricultural foundations, where the economy remains deeply rooted in the productivity of the surrounding plains. The legacy of the railroad once dictated the pulse of commerce here, and though the whistles have grown faint, the identity of the place remains fixed in the sturdy brick facades and the enduring resilience of those who tend the land. Life in Sharon does not seek the frantic pace of the larger world; instead, it finds its measure in the methodical work of the fields and the long, slow shadows that stretch across the streets as dusk descends. Even from this distance, the distant, hazy silhouette of Pea Ridge serves as a rare vertical reminder of the rugged geography that lies far beyond the gentle, expansive basin of the local landscape.

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.
