How to Use This Rome, Indiana Map

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

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 Rome, Indiana

Rome is a locality in Perry County, Indiana, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,322. Rome is located at 37.9234°N, 86.5236°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Indiana/Indianapolis) timezone. ZIP code: 47574.

Rome occupies a quiet, limestone-anchored bend where the Ohio River carves a deep, deliberate path through the rugged terrain of southern Indiana. It lies 9.8 miles southeast of Perry, IN (from Perry, IN: bearing 130°T), and is situated 13.4 miles east of Tell City. The landscape surrounding Rome rises into the dense, shadowed canopy of the Hoosier National Forest, which presses against the outskirts of the settlement with a persistent, verdant density. To the north, the steep, jagged incline of Bennett Ridge dictates the horizon, while the proximity of Kak Hollow creates a dramatic, shadowed dip in the topography that channels the evening mist. Five miles away, the surface of Deer Lake remains a dark, reflective mirror, undisturbed by the currents that define the nearby riverbanks. The air here holds a distinct, heavy clarity, smelling of damp earth and decaying leaves, especially during the long, amber-hued afternoons when the light seems to linger against the limestone bluffs.

Rome maintains a character defined by its endurance and the modest, persistent rhythms of a river-centered life. Historically, the waterway served as a vital artery for trade and transit, though the modern economy has shifted toward the quiet labor of forestry and small-scale agriculture that utilizes the mosaic of woodlots and fields. The legacy of the early settlement remains visible in the sturdy, unadorned architecture that stands against the seasonal shifts of the Midwest climate. Life in Rome moves with a measured, deliberate pace, where the primary concerns are the cycle of the seasons and the maintenance of the land. It is a place where the stillness of the woods and the constant, low-frequency movement of the Ohio River create an atmosphere of profound isolation, preserving a sense of time that exists largely independent of the busier corridors of the state.
