How to Use This Crothersville, Indiana Map

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

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.

Crothersville occupies a quiet expanse of the Indiana plains where the earth settles into a mosaic of fertile farmland and scattered woodlots. It lies 11.3 miles south-southeast of Seymour, IN (from Seymour, IN: bearing 167°T), and is situated 8.8 miles north-northwest of Scottsburg. The Blau Ditch cuts a deliberate path through the terrain, its waters reflecting the heavy, golden light that settles over the fields as the sun dips toward the horizon. To the west, the subtle rise of Walnut Ridge serves as a distant, hazy silhouette against the sky, grounding the otherwise flat horizon. The air here carries the scent of turned soil and distant timber, a stillness that defines the landscape long after the machinery of the day has ceased its work.

Crothersville maintains a steady, industrious character, its identity forged by the labor of those who have long worked the surrounding fields and local manufacturing lines. History remains visible in the modest architecture and the slow, deliberate pace of the streets, which seem to hold the memory of generations past. Residents often look toward the Jackson-Washington State Forest for a reprieve in the deep woods, or find leisure at Manaugh Park, a space that anchors the local rhythm of life. Far from the rush of the modern world, the people here move with a quiet purpose, tethered to a geography defined by the slow drift of the Blau Ditch and the enduring reach of the inland plains.

About This Crothersville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Crothersville, Indiana. Coordinates: 38.800612, -85.841638. 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 Crothersville includes the ZIP code (47229), telephone area code (317), county seat of Jackson County (Brownstown), and school district assignment (Crothersville Community Schools).

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.
