How to Use This Pennville, Indiana Map

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

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.

Pennville maintains a quiet posture amidst the expansive, flat horizon of the Indiana plains, where the open sky dictates the daily mood of the landscape. It lies 6.4 miles north-northwest of Greene, IN (from Greene, IN: bearing 337°T), and is situated 7.3 miles west-northwest of Jay. The Salamonie River carves a deliberate path through the earth nearby, its waters dark and steady as they move past the surrounding fields of corn and soybean. Two miles to the west, the subtle rise of Twin Hills breaks the monotony of the flatlands, providing a slight variation in an otherwise uniform terrain. Seven miles away, the surface of Lake Blue Water reflects the wide, unobstructed light of the afternoon, acting as a cool respite from the heat that often settles heavily over the summer crops.

Pennville draws its character from the rhythms of agriculture and the persistence of its early settlers who recognized the fertility of the soil. While the pace of existence remains measured, the local economy continues to pivot around the seasonal cycles of harvest and the upkeep of the surrounding woodlot mosaic. Residents often look toward the wider region for recreation, occasionally venturing toward Montpelier Community Park, which serves as a common ground for those seeking the shade of mature trees. The architecture of the area speaks to a functional heritage, with brick structures standing as reliable witnesses to the passage of decades. In the quiet evenings, the air holds a stillness that suggests a deep connection to the land, an enduring quality that defines the identity of Pennville for those who walk its streets.

About This Pennville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pennville, Indiana. Coordinates: 40.491917, -85.14694. 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 Pennville includes the ZIP code (47327, 47369), telephone area code (317), county seat of Jay County (Portland), and school district assignment (Jay 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.
