How to Use This Rainsville, Indiana Map

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

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 Rainsville, Indiana

Rainsville is a locality in Warren County, Indiana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 28. The population density is 52.5 people per km². Rainsville is located at 40.4159°N, 87.3156°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Indiana/Indianapolis) timezone. ZIP code: 47918.

Rainsville occupies a quiet expanse of Indiana where the land flattens into a patchwork of corn and soybean fields, interrupted only by the occasional woodlot. It lies 13.4 miles north of Fountain, IN (from Fountain, IN: bearing 4°T), and is situated 9.1 miles north-northwest of Attica. Big Pine Creek carves a deliberate path through the earth nearby, its dark, silt-heavy waters serving as the primary artery for the surrounding lowlands. During the humid peak of summer, the air holds a stillness that makes the distant silhouettes of the Devils Backbone seem like a mirage flickering on the western horizon. Beyond the immediate fields, the landscape softens into the quiet depression of Opossum Hollow, where the shadows grow long and cool before the sun fully retreats.

Rainsville emerged from the practical necessity of agricultural trade, serving as a steady anchor for families who have worked this soil for generations. The economy remains tethered to the rhythmic cycles of the harvest, a lifestyle that leaves little room for pretense but offers a profound familiarity with the changing seasons. Those seeking a reprieve from the labor of the fields often find their way to the Brouillette (McGinnis) Gamebird Habitat Area, where the tall grasses provide a sanctuary for local wildlife. While Kates Lake lies a short drive away, the residents typically measure their time by the work remaining in the silos rather than the reach of the weekend. Life in Rainsville moves with the unforced persistence of the seasons, defined by the enduring quality of the light as it catches the dust of a gravel road at dusk.

About This Rainsville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rainsville, Indiana. Coordinates: 40.41587, -87.31557. 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 Rainsville includes the ZIP code (47918), telephone area code (765), county seat of Warren County (Williamsport), and school district assignment (Warren County Metropolitan School District).

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.
