How to Use This Hurstbourne, Kentucky Map

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

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.

Hurstbourne occupies a landscape defined by the subtle, limestone-rich topography of the Kentucky interior, where the land rises and falls in long, rhythmic swells. It lies 1.5 miles south-southeast of Lyndon, KY (from Lyndon, KY: bearing 151°T), and is situated 9.4 miles east of Louisville. Weicher Creek traces a narrow, quiet path through the local terrain, its waters carving a modest channel that serves as a constant, low-voiced neighbor to the nearby residential lanes. While the distant Appalachian Mountains remain a mere suggestion of shadow on the far horizon, the immediate ground feels solid and grounded, shaped by a climate that brings a deep, golden quality to the light during the transition into dusk. Residents often find their way to Hurstbourne City Park, a green expanse that offers a brief, deliberate stillness before the pace of the afternoon resumes.

Economic life in Hurstbourne reflects a sophisticated evolution from the agrarian roots that once dominated this region, shifting toward professional services and business corridors that define the contemporary character of the locality. The history of the area is tied to the broader development of the Ohio River valley, though the modern rhythm of the day is marked less by the industrial past and more by the steady, focused activity of a suburban center. Travelers passing through might sense the lingering influence of the bluegrass tradition, even as the landscape has transitioned into a mosaic of office architecture and well-tended lawns. The proximity to the Falls of the Ohio provides a reminder of the powerful, ancient geology that underlies this entire part of the state, grounding the forward-looking economy of Hurstbourne in the deep, enduring limestone of the earth itself.

About This Hurstbourne Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hurstbourne, Kentucky. Coordinates: 38.238126, -85.588294. 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 Hurstbourne includes the ZIP code (40222), telephone area code (502), county seat of Jefferson County (Louisville), and school district assignment (Jefferson 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.
