Explore Centerville, Georgia, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Centerville, Georgia. 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 Georgia 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 Centerville.
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.

Centerville occupies a broad expanse of the Georgia piedmont, where the earth is stained a deep, iron-rich red and the longleaf pines cast thin, flickering shadows across the warming soil. It lies 34.9 miles east-northeast of Columbus, GA (from Columbus, GA: bearing 62°T), and is situated 15.3 miles south-southwest of Thomaston. The landscape remains defined by the slow, deliberate movement of Richland Creek, which meanders through the lowlands only a mile from the center of activity. To the west, the horizon is anchored by the muted, hazy silhouette of Pine Woods Ridge, a constant reminder of the geological theater that shapes the region. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness that seems to amplify the evening chorus of cicadas, while the proximity of Floyds Lake, resting just two miles away, provides a quiet, reflective stillness to the local topography.
Centerville serves as a transition point between the agrarian traditions of the past and the steady, modern expansion of the surrounding corridor. The local economy has long evolved from its initial roots in the cultivation of the surrounding fields, adapting to the steady pace of commerce that defines the daily life of its residents. For those seeking the solace of the outdoors, the Big Lazer Creek Wildlife Management Area & Public Fishing Area sits four miles distant, preserving a sense of wild, untamed space that contrasts with the predictable grid of suburban roads. Life in Centerville proceeds with a rhythmic consistency, where the focus remains on the quiet endurance of neighborhood life and the slow, steady development of a place that values its own internal gravity over the frantic pull of the larger world.

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.
