How to Use This Ferguson, Kentucky Map

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

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.

Ferguson maintains a quiet presence where the Sinking Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the limestone-rich soil of the central landscape. It lies 1.8 miles south of Somerset, KY (from Somerset, KY: bearing 173°T), and is situated 28.9 miles west-northwest of Corbin. The terrain around Ferguson is defined by a slow, rhythmic transition from flat, open fields to the shadowed depressions of Polecat Hollow, where the air often holds a cool, damp stillness long after the sun has climbed above the horizon. To the east, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains provides a permanent, silent boundary to the skyline, while the immediate vicinity is dominated by the dense, tangled greenery of the Lake Cumberland Wildlife Management Area. As the day wanes, the light catches the mineral-heavy dust of the backroads, casting a pale, amber glow across the fields that seem to stretch toward the nearby waters of Lake Cumberland.

Industry in Ferguson has long been tethered to the land, reflecting a history of resourcefulness where the labor of the soil and the proximity to regional trade routes dictated the pace of growth. The local economy persists with a steady, unpretentious energy, drawing from the agrarian traditions of the surrounding region while acknowledging the shifts in modern work that have pulled the focus toward the nearby trade hubs. Life here is measured by the seasonal cycles of the woods and the persistent, low-frequency hum of regional transport, a pattern that has persisted through generations of families who remain rooted in the limestone bedrock. Visitors passing through find that Ferguson possesses a stark, functional honesty, where the architecture is built for utility and the quietude of the evening is punctuated only by the occasional rustle of wildlife moving toward the creek.

About This Ferguson Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ferguson, Kentucky. Coordinates: 37.062591, -84.598444. 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 Ferguson includes the ZIP code (42265, 42501), telephone area code (270), county seat of Pulaski County (Somerset), and school district assignment (Pulaski 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.
