How to Use This Calhoun, Kentucky Map

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

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.

Calhoun holds a quiet gravity where Myer Creek winds its way through the landscape, carving a path toward the horizon. It lies 18.1 miles south-southwest of Owensboro, KY (from Owensboro, KY: bearing 206°T), and is situated 19.7 miles northeast of Madisonville. The land surrounding Calhoun unfolds in wide, deliberate stretches of earth, rising toward the Tichenor Hills that form a muted, jagged silhouette against the western sky. Within the green expanse of Meyer Creek Park, the air holds the damp, heavy scent of loam and turning leaves, a reminder that the moisture of the lowlands dictates the pace of the day. Sunlight here takes on a pale, buttery quality in the late afternoon, illuminating the grasses and the dark, tangled thickets that cling to the banks of the creek.

Agriculture and the slow, steady persistence of local industry define the character of Calhoun, where the rhythm of trade follows the seasonal cycles of the fields. History is written in the soil and the legacy of the settlers who first cleared these woods, leaving behind a quiet resilience that persists in the storefronts and the sparse, functional architecture of the streets. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the terrain dips toward the distant, unseen Cypress Bottom, while the stillness of Wyman Lake remains a silent presence eight miles away, anchoring the wider geography. Life in Calhoun moves with a deliberate, unadorned gravity, rooted in the labor of the land and the quiet, persistent awareness of the water that shapes the valley floor.
