How to Use This Blandville, Kentucky Map

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

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.

Blandville occupies a quiet expanse of western Kentucky where the horizon stretches wide across flat, fertile plains. It lies 22.3 miles west-southwest of Paducah, KY (from Paducah, KY: bearing 244°T), and is situated 19.2 miles southwest of Metropolis. The earth here is dark and heavy, prone to holding the morning mist until the sun burns it away, leaving the fields to shimmer with a pale, golden light. Mayfield Creek winds sluggishly through the low ground a mile away, its banks lined with dense thickets that muffle the sound of the wind. To the distant east, the faint, jagged silhouette of O'Bryan Ridge occasionally breaks the monotony of the sky, serving as a reminder of the more rugged geography that defines the wider region. When the light fades at dusk, the air cools rapidly, carrying the scent of damp soil and the distant, earthy musk of the Coil Estate Wildlife Management Area.

Blandville remains a place defined by the slow, deliberate work of agriculture, where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the pace of daily existence. Families have long tended the surrounding acreage, their histories etched into the property lines and the modest, sturdy architecture that characterizes the local landscape. While the economy remains tethered to the productivity of the soil, the presence of Winford Pond five miles out offers a small, reflective stillness for those who seek a moment away from the fields. Life moves without pretense, favoring a quiet endurance over the frantic pace of larger centers. Even as the years pass, Blandville retains a particular, grounded character, holding onto a way of life that values the steady labor of the hands and the deep, abiding silence of the plains.

About This Blandville Map Page

Detailed location data for Blandville includes the ZIP code (42087), telephone area code (270, 364), county seat of Ballard County (Wickliffe), and school district assignment (Ballard 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.
