How to Use This Bellemeade, Kentucky Map

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

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 Bellemeade, Kentucky

Bellemeade emerges from the quiet, verdant folds of the Kentucky landscape as a collection of shaded lanes and private, well-tended lawns. The Middle Fork Beargrass Creek traces a deliberate path near the boundary, its waters moving with a hushed persistence through the limestone-rich earth that defines the region’s bedrock. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy of local hardwoods, casting long, fractured shadows across the pavement of Romara Place, a local park that serves as a quiet anchor for the neighborhood. On the distant horizon, the faint, blue-hued suggestion of the Appalachian Mountains provides a permanent, silent backdrop to the daily transit of light across the open sky.

Bellemeade maintains a character defined by its residential tranquility and the enduring legacy of its mid-century development. While the local economy is largely integrated into the broader professional vitality of the surrounding region, the immediate atmosphere remains focused on the maintenance of its quiet, wooded aesthetics and private properties. Residents often look toward the nearby Jefferson County Memorial Forest for a deeper immersion into the native woodland, or perhaps toward the horizon where the land settles into its familiar, ancient contours. There is a specific, heavy stillness here at dusk, when the air cools against the creek bed and the sounds of the day retreat into the rustle of leaves, leaving Bellemeade to its own measured pace.

About This Bellemeade Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Bellemeade, Kentucky. Coordinates: 38.252293, -85.592183. 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 Bellemeade includes the ZIP code (40222, 40223), telephone area code (502), county seat of Jefferson County (Louisville), and school district assignment (Jefferson County 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.
