Explore Booneville, Kentucky, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Booneville, 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 Booneville.
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.

Booneville occupies a quiet intersection of limestone earth and hardwood timber, defined largely by the steady, persistent passage of Buck Creek as it carves through the local geography. It lies 34.6 miles east of Berea, KY (from Berea, KY: bearing 100°T), and is situated 6.8 miles south-southeast of Beattyville. The landscape here is defined by deep, shadowed hollows and the distinct, low-lying depression of The Sag, which sits just a mile away, holding the damp morning mists long after the sun has climbed over the ridges. While the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains occasionally sharpen against the western sky, the immediate horizon is dominated by the dense, tangled canopy of the Redbird Purchase Unit, where the forest floor retains the scent of damp moss and decaying leaves. The quality of light in this basin is heavy and golden, catching the limestone dust on the roadside and softening the sharp angles of the weathered barns that dot the slopes.
Booneville maintains a character shaped by the cyclical rhythms of the timber and coal economies that once fueled the internal engine of the region. Life here moves with a deliberate, measured patience, far removed from the frantic pace of the larger interstate corridors, and the local economy remains tied to the modest commerce of a rural county seat. Residents often look toward the quiet expanse of Beulah Lake for respite, a body of water that mirrors the vast, unblemished sky during the stillness of late afternoon. The architectural heritage of the area, marked by sturdy, unadorned structures, reflects a history of self-reliance and the pragmatic endurance of those who have long occupied these hills. Even as the seasons shift, the atmosphere in Booneville retains a singular, enduring gravity, grounded in the limestone foundation and the persistent, quiet flow of the local watershed.

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.
