How to Use This Tennyson, Indiana Map

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

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.

Tennyson emerges from the quiet expanse of southwestern Indiana as a collection of rooftops and weathered siding held fast by the gravity of the plains. It lies 7.8 miles east of Warrick, IN (from Warrick, IN: bearing 86°T), and is situated 8.8 miles east-northeast of Boonville. The land here holds a particular stillness, characterized by the low, insistent rise of Fisher Knobs six miles to the horizon, which anchor the view against an immense, often pale sky. A mile from the center, the waters of Powers Ditch move with a sluggish, deliberate intent through the low-lying silt, carving a thin, dark line through the surrounding fields. The air carries a heavy, terrestrial scent, especially when the light at dusk turns the color of harvested wheat and shadows stretch long and thin across the gravel shoulders of the roads. Two miles away, the Bloomfield Barrens Managed Area preserves a wilder, more unkempt version of this territory, where the native grasses and scrub brush offer a glimpse of the landscape before the plow arrived.

Tennyson remains a place where the economy is written in the geometry of the surrounding woodlot mosaic and the persistent cycle of the seasons. History here is kept in the quiet maintenance of fence lines and the occasional brick foundation that suggests a denser, busier past before the regional shifts in industry took hold. While the town lacks the sprawling reach of larger centers, it possesses the dignity of a place that understands its own scale, neither asking for nor needing the attention of the outside world. Ten miles away, Christmas Lake provides a focal point for those seeking the stillness of water, yet the life of Tennyson is defined more by the internal rhythm of the harvest and the steady, unsung work of maintaining a life in the interior. It is a location of subtle endurance, where the proximity to the Spencer County State Forest serves as a reminder of the deep, wooded heritage that once claimed all the earth here, leaving behind only these small, cleared spaces for the living.

About This Tennyson Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Tennyson, Indiana. Coordinates: 38.082272, -87.118334. 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 Tennyson includes the ZIP code (47637), telephone area code (812), county seat of Warrick County (Boonville), and school district assignment (Warrick County 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.
