How to Use This Tallassee, Tennessee Map

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

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 Tallassee, Tennessee

Tallassee is a locality in Blount County, Tennessee, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 8.0 people per km². Tallassee is located at 35.5467°N, 84.0599°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 37878.

Tallassee reveals itself through the clear, shallow currents of Cochran Creek, which carve a persistent path through the damp, dark earth of the valley floor. It lies 14.7 miles southwest of Blount, TN (from Blount, TN: bearing 234°T), and is situated 15.3 miles south-southwest of Maryville. High above the horizon, the silhouette of the Great Smoky Mountains marks the eastern boundary, casting long, bruised shadows across the fields as the sun dips behind the ridges. The landscape here is defined by the heavy, humid stillness of Stony Grave Hollow, where the air holds a dense, vegetative weight that clings to the skin long after the heat of the afternoon has faded. Water defines the edges of the world, with the expanse of Tellico Lake providing a quiet, glassy mirror for the clouds, while the surrounding terrain remains deeply rooted in the heavy clay of the Tennessee interior.

Tallassee carries the quiet legacy of an agrarian past, where the rhythm of the work day is dictated not by clocks, but by the slow, seasonal turn of the soil and the maintenance of the land. The local economy persists in a modest, steady alignment with the natural bounty of the region, supported by the protective oversight of the Tellico Lake Wildlife Management Area. Residents find a solitary, rugged recreation in the miles of wilderness that stretch toward the Lower Falls, or perhaps by testing their endurance along the Stiffknee Trail. In the quiet intersections of the day, Tallassee maintains a character forged in the silence of the woods and the persistent, unhurried flow of the creek, offering a life that is measured by the gradual change of the leaves and the cooling of the autumn air.

About This Tallassee Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Tallassee, Tennessee. Coordinates: 35.546749, -84.059907. 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 Tallassee includes the ZIP code (37878), telephone area code (865), county seat of Blount County (Maryville), and school district assignment.

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.
