How to Use This Keene, Kentucky Map

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

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.

Keene emerges from the limestone bedrock of the Bluegrass region, where the earth holds a deep, mineral-rich promise beneath its surface. It lies 5.7 miles northwest of Nicholasville, KY (from Nicholasville, KY: bearing 319°T), and is situated 9.5 miles west-southwest of Lexington. Cave Spring Creek carves a quiet, persistent path through the limestone, its current reflecting the heavy, golden light that settles over the fields as the sun dips toward the horizon. The landscape here is defined by long, rhythmic swells of pastureland, where the soil nurtures the high-protein grasses essential to the thoroughbreds that graze in the distance. To the east, the hazy, blue-tinted silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the far limit of the horizon, a distant reminder of the rugged terrain that separates this gentle basin from the wider world.

Keene maintains a stillness born of long-standing agricultural traditions, where the cycle of the seasons dictates the pace of life more than the ticking of a clock. The local economy remains tethered to the land, rooted in the legacy of livestock and the quiet, industrial hum of distillery country that permeates the surrounding county. Residents find their recreation in the simple expanse of the outdoors, often venturing to Billy Lockridge Park to walk the paths, or spending quiet afternoons by the banks of Sycamore Lake. Though the deeper, more dramatic limestone formations of Jessamine Gorge draw the adventurous further afield, Keene remains content in its own quietude, a place where the history of the soil is written in every fence line and weathered barn.

About This Keene Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Keene, Kentucky. Coordinates: 37.943411, -84.641888. 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 Keene includes the ZIP code (40339), telephone area code (502), county seat of Jessamine County (Nicholasville), and school district assignment (Jessamine 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.
