How to Use This Oxville, Illinois Map

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

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 Oxville, Illinois

Oxville is a locality in Scott County, Illinois, United States. It is a small community with a population of 24. The population density is 272.5 people per km². Oxville is located at 39.7048°N, 90.5612°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 62621.

Oxville emerges from the persistent, alluvial reach of the Mauvaise Terre Creek, which carves a modest, winding path through the heavy silt of the Illinois landscape. It lies 17.8 miles west of Jacksonville, IL (from Jacksonville, IL: bearing 264°T), and is situated 14.6 miles east-northeast of Pittsfield. Beyond the immediate basin, the horizon flattens into an expansive, oceanic stretch of corn and soybean fields, interrupted only by the occasional stand of oak or the distant, hazy silhouette of Spunky Ridge. The quality of light here, particularly in the late afternoon, bleaches the sky to a pale, clinical violet, casting long, lean shadows that stretch across the fields until they dissolve into the dark, damp earth. Four miles to the west, the quiet surface of McCoe Lake holds the reflection of the sky, a still, silver eye in a landscape defined by the slow, seasonal pulse of the soil.

Oxville remains a place where the architecture of the nineteenth century—weathered brick and sturdy, unornamented limestone—anchors the streetscape against the encroaching prairie winds. The local economy is tied to the rhythmic turning of the seasons, with grain elevators serving as the primary vertical markers of the skyline, standing as utilitarian monuments to the surrounding agricultural labor. Nearby, the Ray Norbut State Fish and Wildlife Area offers a reprieve from the grid of the surrounding farms, where the dense, tangled undergrowth provides a refuge for deer and the occasional rustle of small game. A few miles further, the gentle, shadowed depression of Napolean Hollow draws the eye, reminding any observer that the land is not merely flat, but composed of subtle, ancient shifts in the topography. Life in Oxville moves with the deliberate pace of a freight train passing through the distance, where the sound of the wind through the tall stalks often carries more weight than the hum of the occasional motor on the road.
