How to Use This Atlee, Virginia Map

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

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 Atlee, Virginia

Atlee is a locality in Hanover County, Virginia, United States. It has a population of 18,000. The population density is 480.0 people per km². Atlee is located at 37.6576°N, 77.4069°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 23116, 23005.

Atlee occupies a quiet span of the Piedmont where the earth maintains a steady, unremarkable grace. It lies 3.8 miles north-northwest of Mechanicsville, VA (from Mechanicsville, VA: bearing 331°T), and is situated 7.7 miles north-northeast of Richmond. Opossum Creek carves a shallow, persistent path through the local terrain, serving as a reliable artery for the surrounding woodlands. Wachter Pond sits a mile away, its surface often catching the flat, pale light of late afternoon in a way that suggests a profound stillness. Far to the west, the faint, bruised outline of the Blue Ridge Mountains marks the distant edge of the horizon. Atlee remains firmly inland, defined by the slow transition of seasons rather than any proximity to the shifting water levels of the distant coast.

Atlee grew from the steady rhythm of agricultural labor and the eventual expansion of regional transit lines that linked the countryside to larger hubs. The local economy has evolved from its early reliance on the soil to a modern blend of service-oriented work and small-scale enterprise. Residents often speak of the transition from older, labor-intensive industries to the current professional climate that characterizes the modern landscape. The history of the region is felt in the architecture of older properties that stand as quiet witnesses to decades of incremental change. Each generation has left a thumbprint on the land, shifting the focus from the harvest to the quiet administrative and technical tasks that now occupy the workday.

Atlee holds a character shaped by the intersection of traditional values and the modest, persistent pace of a modern commuter life. Klehr Field serves as a primary gathering point for local recreation, providing a wide, open space that invites the community to step away from their daily obligations. Although the surroundings are largely quiet, the area retains a deep-seated connection to the broader cultural narratives of the Old Dominion. There are no grand monuments here, but rather a series of well-maintained spaces that reflect a preference for order and privacy. The atmosphere is one of deliberate calm, where the most significant events are the simple, recurring markers of school schedules and seasonal changes that define the year.

About This Atlee Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Atlee, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.657644, -77.406926. 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 Atlee includes the ZIP code (23116, 23005), telephone area code (804), county seat of Hanover County (Hanover Courthouse), 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.
