How to Use This Crossville, Illinois Map

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

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.

Crossville occupies a quiet expanse of flat, fertile earth where the horizon stretches wide under a vast, unencumbered sky. It lies 14.4 miles northwest of Posey, IN (from Posey, IN: bearing 320°T), and is situated 7.0 miles northeast of Carmi. Elliott Creek traces a slow, meandering path near the edge of the settlement, its waters cutting through the dark, loamy soil that defines the regional character. To the west, the subtle rise of Poplar Ridge breaks the monotony of the plains, providing a distant, shadowed silhouette against the afternoon sun. Only four miles away, the surface of Dick Pond reflects the shifting colors of the clouds, offering a still, glassy contrast to the active flow of the nearby creek. The air here carries the scent of turned earth and drying stalks, a heavy, honest fragrance that lingers long after the day’s work has ceased.

Agriculture remains the lifeblood of the local economy, with the surrounding fields producing the corn and soybeans that have long anchored the labor of those who live in Crossville. This landscape is shaped by the presence of the Little Wabash River, a nearby natural corridor that preserves a segment of the wilder, wooded character of the region. The rhythm of daily life here follows the seasonal cycle of planting and harvest, a measured pace that values persistence over haste. Brick structures from an earlier era stand as markers of a time when the rails and the land dictated the town's growth, and today, that same steady, grounded spirit continues to define the collective identity of the residents.

About This Crossville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Crossville, Illinois. Coordinates: 38.161713, -88.065312. 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 Crossville includes the ZIP code (62827), telephone area code (618), county seat of White County (Carmi), and school district assignment (Carmi-White County Community Unit School District 5).

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.
