How to Use This South Fulton, Tennessee Map

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

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.

South Fulton stretches across the level, fertile plains of the Mississippi embayment where the horizon remains wide and unobstructed by the distant silhouettes of Hickory Ridge. It lies 11.0 miles north of Martin, TN (from Martin, TN: bearing 353°T), and is situated 0.2 miles south-southwest of Fulton. Harris Fork Creek carves a quiet, persistent path through the landscape, its banks providing a cool sanctuary for the sycamores and willows that lean toward the dark, slow-moving water. Within the town limits, United Park offers a modest expanse of green space where the summer air hangs heavy and sweet with the scent of damp earth and clover. The quality of light here is singular, turning a bruised, golden violet at dusk that seems to settle deep into the surrounding fields of row crops.

South Fulton emerged from the intersection of rail lines and agrarian necessity, its identity forged by the labor of the harvest and the steady movement of freight. The local economy remains tethered to the productivity of the soil, with silos and rail spurs acting as the functional architecture of a life defined by seasonal cycles. Residents often find their way toward Harold Muzzall Lake for a quiet afternoon, though the rhythm of the day is dictated more by the clock of the grain elevator than by any recreational diversion. Even as modern transit lines pull at the edges of the region, South Fulton maintains a grounded, matter-of-fact character, anchored by the patient endurance of those who work the land and keep the tracks clear.

About This South Fulton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of South Fulton, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.49334, -88.883654. 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 South Fulton includes the ZIP code (38257), telephone area code (901), county seat of Obion County (Union City), and school district assignment (Obion 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.
