How to Use This Fredonia, Kentucky Map

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

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 Fredonia, Kentucky

Fredonia emerges from the limestone-heavy soil of the Kentucky interior, where the horizon is defined by the subtle, persistent rise of Nelson Ridge four miles to the east. It lies 31.1 miles east-northeast of Paducah, KY (from Paducah, KY: bearing 74°T), and is situated 8.0 miles north of Eddyville. Broad fields of agriculture stretch toward the horizon, punctuated by the cooling shadows cast by stands of hardwood that catch the slanted light of late afternoon. Only a mile away, the quiet passage of Livingston Creek carves a path through the earth, its banks providing a damp, fertile foundation for the surrounding woodlands. When the sun dips low, the air in Fredonia takes on a heavy, golden quality, settling over the limestone outcroppings and the open, agrarian expanse with a stillness that feels both ancient and immediate.

Fredonia maintains a quiet, deliberate pace of life, anchored by the modest expanse of Fredonia City Park where the community gathers under the shade of mature trees. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the land, drawing sustenance from the surrounding fields and the legacy of agricultural industry that has long defined this part of the state. Those seeking a broader view of the terrain often look toward the three-mile mark, where the depression of Rocky Hollow creates a distinct break in the otherwise level topography. Beyond the immediate reach of the settlement, the waters of Brushy Pond wait five miles away, reflecting the sky in a mirror of dark, undisturbed glass that serves as a silent witness to the passing seasons.

About This Fredonia Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fredonia, Kentucky. Coordinates: 37.208107, -88.056688. 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 Fredonia includes the ZIP code (42411), telephone area code (270), county seat of Caldwell County (Princeton), and school district assignment (Caldwell 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.
