How to Use This Kent Acres, Delaware Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Kent Acres, Delaware. 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 Delaware 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 Kent Acres.

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 Kent Acres, Delaware

Kent Acres is a locality in Kent County, Delaware, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,144. The population density is 975.0 people per km². Kent Acres is located at 39.1318°N, 75.5249°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 19901.

Kent Acres occupies a quiet stretch of flat, fertile earth where the drainage patterns of the inland plains dictate the slow, deliberate pace of the horizon. It lies 1.8 miles south of Dover, DE (from Dover, DE: bearing 181°T), and is situated 2.2 miles north-northwest of Rising Sun-Lebanon. The Isaac Branch carves a soft, winding path through the local topography, its presence marked by a thin, dense veil of riparian vegetation that keeps the soil cool even during the heavy, humid heat of mid-summer. Here, the light at dusk has a way of pooling in the low-lying fields, turning the stalks of grain into shimmering bronze filaments that seem to hold the day’s warmth long after the sun has slipped behind the distant, shadowed silhouette of Sugar Hill. Bordering the residential edges, Wolf Creek serves as a quiet sanctuary, a sprawl of protected green space where the land remains unburdened by the constant press of development.

Kent Acres persists as a place defined by the steady, industrious rhythm of agriculture and the quiet persistence of its inland roots. The local economy remains tethered to the productive capacity of the surrounding acreage, where the cycle of planting and harvest provides the fundamental pulse for those who call Kent Acres home. While the larger influence of regional industry hums in the distance, this locality retains a distinct, modest character, favoring the reliability of its fields over the frantic churn of modern expansion. It is a place where one might walk the perimeter of Wolf Creek on a Tuesday morning and find that the only sounds are the rustle of wind through the tall grasses and the distant, rhythmic hum of tractors working the soil, a testament to a way of life that values the tangible weight of the land above all else.

About This Kent Acres Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Kent Acres, Delaware. Coordinates: 39.131779, -75.524924. 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 Kent Acres includes the ZIP code (19901), telephone area code (302), county seat of Kent County (Dover), and school district assignment (Caesar Rodney 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.
