How to Use This Morgantown, Indiana Map

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

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.

Morgantown occupies a quiet stretch of land where the Long Run carves a modest path through the landscape, defining the local topography with its steady, unhurried flow. It lies 9.7 miles east-southeast of Martinsville, IN (from Martinsville, IN: bearing 114°T), and is situated 17.4 miles south-southwest of Hendricks. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain rises into the gentle, persistent elevations of Oak Ridge, which anchors the horizon in a soft, hazy blue. The air here holds a particular clarity, especially as the light shifts in the late afternoon, casting long, amber shadows across the mosaic of woodlots and cultivated fields that characterize the surrounding acreage. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Yellowwood State Forest, a SCA, where the dense canopy marks the transition into a more rugged, forested interior, while the proximity of Whitley Lake provides a localized stillness, its surface reflecting the changing moods of the Indiana sky.

Morgantown emerged from the necessity of early agrarian settlement, serving as a functional center for those who broke the soil and organized their lives around the cycles of the harvest. The economy remains tethered to these deep-seated roots, balancing the demands of modern commerce with a lingering devotion to the land that has sustained generations. History lingers in the architecture of the older buildings, where the weight of brick and the precision of craftsmanship suggest a time when the rhythm of the day was dictated by the sun and the season rather than the clock. Life in Morgantown continues with a deliberate, measured pace, influenced by the proximity of larger tracts like Morgan Monroe State Forest, which serves as a quiet reminder of the wilder, undeveloped reaches that persist even in this settled corner of the state.

About This Morgantown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Morgantown, Indiana. Coordinates: 39.371437, -86.261102. 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 Morgantown includes the ZIP code (46160), telephone area code (260), county seat of Morgan County (Martinsville), and school district assignment (Nineveh-Hensley-Jackson United School Corporation).

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.
