How to Use This Washington, Georgia Map

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

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 Washington, Georgia

Washington is a locality in Wilkes County, Georgia, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,754. The population density is 188.3 people per km². Washington is located at 33.7368°N, 82.7393°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Washington is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 30673.

Washington occupies a space where the red-clay piedmont meets the horizon, defined by the quiet passage of Threemile Creek as it carves a path through the dense, verdant woodland. It lies 36.9 miles west-northwest of Grovetown, GA (from Grovetown, GA: bearing 303°T), and is situated 22.8 miles northwest of Thomson. The air here carries the heavy, humid scent of damp earth and longleaf pine, holding a stillness that seems to thicken as the sun dips low, casting long, amber shadows across the fields. While the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the far-off limit of the state’s rugged northern reaches, Washington remains grounded in the gentle, undulating topography of the interior, where the quality of light at dusk turns the landscape into a soft, glowing expanse of bronze and deep violet.

History clings to the architecture of Washington, where the enduring structures of the nineteenth century testify to a past built upon the cultivation of the soil and the rhythm of agrarian commerce. The local economy, historically tethered to the bounty of peach and pecan orchards, continues to draw its vitality from the land, even as the pace of life shifts toward the modern requirements of the region. Residents often find their recreation at Washington-Wilkes Parks and Rec, a modest expanse that serves as a quiet center for community life, while the proximity of J. Strom Thurmond Reservoir provides a vast, glassy basin that tempers the summer heat. In the quiet corners of Washington, the legacy of its founding remains visible in the preserved facades and the steady, unhurried persistence of a place that values the weight of its own narrative over the fleeting pressures of the outside world.

About This Washington Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Washington, Georgia. Coordinates: 33.736795, -82.739309. 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 Washington includes the ZIP code (30673), telephone area code (770, 678), county seat of Wilkes County (Washington), and school district assignment (Wilkes 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.
