How to Use This Ezel, Kentucky Map

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

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 Ezel, Kentucky

Ezel is a locality in Morgan County, Kentucky, United States. It is a small community with a population of 209. The population density is 91.2 people per km². Ezel is located at 37.8912°N, 83.4444°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 41425.

Ezel occupies a quiet stretch of land where the earth rises in slow, limestone-rich swells toward the distant, hazy blue of the Appalachian Mountains. It lies 40.6 miles east of Winchester, KY (from Winchester, KY: bearing 99°T), and is situated 10.3 miles west-southwest of West Liberty. Blackwater Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the landscape, its waters pulling cool, dark shadows beneath the canopy of sycamores that line its banks. The air here carries a heavy, damp stillness, particularly at dusk when the low light catches the golden silt of the creek bed and turns the surrounding fields into a muted, copper-toned expanse. Only three miles away, the water finds a more dramatic release at Broken Leg Falls, where the sudden, rhythmic rush of the stream breaks the quietude that otherwise defines the valley.

Ezel remains a place of deep-rooted persistence, bearing the quiet marks of generations who worked the soil and navigated the timber-heavy slopes that reach toward the horizon. The economy has long breathed in sync with the rhythms of the woodland and the small-scale agriculture that persists on the flatter ground, far removed from the hurried pace of modern commerce. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Broke Leg Falls for a sense of local grounding, finding in the geology of the region a reflection of their own endurance. While the vast forests like Olympia State Forest stand seventeen miles away as a dark, silent sentinel, the pulse of daily life in Ezel remains defined by the immediate, intimate geography of the creek and the slow, steady turning of the seasons.

About This Ezel Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ezel, Kentucky. Coordinates: 37.891196, -83.44435. 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 Ezel includes the ZIP code (41425), telephone area code (859), county seat of Morgan County (West Liberty), and school district assignment (Morgan 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.
