How to Use This East Highland Park, Virginia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for East Highland Park, 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 East Highland Park.

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 East Highland Park, Virginia

East Highland Park is a locality in Henrico County, Virginia, United States. It has a population of 15,131. The population density is 665.1 people per km². East Highland Park is located at 37.5775°N, 77.3868°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 23222.

East Highland Park reveals its character through a landscape defined by the subtle transitions of the Virginia Piedmont. It lies 2.7 miles southwest of Mechanicsville, VA (from Mechanicsville, VA: bearing 224°T), and is situated 3.5 miles east-northeast of Richmond. The land here rests firmly inland, far removed from any maritime influence, favoring instead the quiet persistence of dense hardwood stands and open fields. A short mile away, the waters of Shockoe Creek trace a path through the terrain, while the broader expanse of Lake Overton sits just three miles from the center of the neighborhood. On the clearest days, one might catch a faint, ethereal suggestion of the Blue Ridge Mountains rising against the western horizon, seventy-eight miles distant. Closer at hand, the local topography remains defined by the modest, purposeful growth of suburban life.

East Highland Park emerged as a residential extension of the capital region, shaped by the shifting tides of twentieth-century development and the expansion of nearby infrastructure. The local economy draws its vitality from a blend of service industries and the administrative reach of the surrounding metropolitan sphere, moving away from the agricultural roots that once dominated the greater territory. Residents often commute to centers of commerce and technology, participating in a modern workforce that contrasts with the area's older, more agrarian historical markers. While the landscape is no longer defined by the tobacco fields of the past, the influence of that era remains a subtle shadow in the region’s development. The proximity to the expansive Pocahontas State Forest provides a lingering connection to the wilder, wooded heritage that preceded modern construction.

Cultural life in East Highland Park finds its focus in the communal spaces that bring neighbors together, such as the Vawter Street Park/Glen Lea Recreation Area. This local space serves as a central point for outdoor activity, grounding the daily rhythm of the neighborhood in the simple presence of grass, trees, and play. The atmosphere remains one of quiet industry, where the pace of life reflects the steady, polite traditions of the Old Dominion. While the locality does not claim birthrights to globally famous figures, it participates in the broader, shared identity of a region that values historical memory and a grounded, unassuming temperament. Every afternoon, the light shifts across the rooftops and the nearby green spaces, illuminating the modest, enduring reality of a place built for the routines of family and work.

About This East Highland Park Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of East Highland Park, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.577514, -77.386788. 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 East Highland Park includes the ZIP code (23222), telephone area code (804), county seat of Henrico County, and school district assignment (Henrico County Public Schools).

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.
