How to Use This Whitlock, Tennessee Map

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

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.

Whitlock emerges from the flat, fertile expanse of West Tennessee as a quiet intersection of rural industry and open sky. It lies 5.0 miles north-northwest of Paris, TN (from Paris, TN: bearing 341°T), and is situated 6.5 miles north-northwest of Hancock. The horizon remains largely uninterrupted, save for the distant, hazy suggestion of Pea Ridge that anchors the far western view. Moist air rises from the nearby North Fork Obion River, cooling the fields during the brief, amber-hued transition of dusk. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, Smith Lake offers a stillness that reflects the low-hanging clouds, while the grounds of Johnson Park provide a refuge of timber and bramble for those seeking the shade of indigenous oaks.

Whitlock sustains itself through the steady, seasonal rhythm of agriculture, where the soil holds the memory of generations who turned the earth long before modern machinery arrived. The economic pulse of the region beats in sync with the harvest, drawing a modest, focused energy that defines the local character. Further afield, the low-lying basin of Ward Bottom captures the seasonal runoff, a reminder of the land’s persistent, watery nature. Life in Whitlock does not ask for notice or grand gestures, preferring the slow, deliberate turn of the seasons and the quiet dignity of a place that knows its own boundaries well.

About This Whitlock Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Whitlock, Tennessee. Coordinates: 36.370891, -88.356988. 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 Whitlock includes the ZIP code (38242), telephone area code (901), county seat of Henry County (Paris), and school district assignment (Henry 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.
