How to Use This Murrayville, Illinois Map

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

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.

Murrayville occupies a quiet expanse of the Illinois prairie, defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of North Little Sandy Creek as it carves a path through the flat, fertile earth. It lies 10.3 miles south of Jacksonville, IL (from Jacksonville, IL: bearing 187°T), and is situated 8.6 miles south of South Jacksonville. The landscape here is characterized by vast, open horizons where the sky claims more space than the land, and the air carries the dry, honest scent of turned soil and distant stalks. Two miles away, the surface of Murrayville Woodson Lake catches the light of the setting sun, turning a pale, muted silver that mirrors the clouds drifting over the plains. Further out, the distant silhouette of Tick Ridge suggests a rugged horizon, though the immediate world remains one of level fields and the steady, patient growth of the seasons.

Murrayville carries the weight of a long agricultural legacy, its identity forged in the cycles of planting and harvest that have sustained the region for generations. The economy remains anchored to the productivity of the surrounding acreage, a quiet industry that dictates the pace of the day and the character of the people who work the land. Beyond the fields, the proximity to specialized grounds like Wolf Run Bow Hunters marks a local tradition of outdoor skill and patience, while the occasional traveler might find a moment of stillness in the proximity of Happy Hollow. Life in Murrayville moves with the slow, deliberate gravity of the seasons, maintaining a grounded sense of place that values the resilience of the soil and the quiet endurance of those who call it home.

About This Murrayville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Murrayville, Illinois. Coordinates: 39.585602, -90.252064. 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 Murrayville includes the ZIP code (62668), telephone area code (217), county seat of Morgan County (Jacksonville), and school district assignment (Jacksonville School District 117).

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.
