How to Use This Langdon Place, Kentucky Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Langdon Place, 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 Langdon Place.
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.

ZIP codes: 40241, 40242.Langdon Place emerges from the limestone-heavy soil of the Kentucky interior, defined by the quiet persistence of Little Goose Creek as it carves a path through the terrain. It lies 3.5 miles north-northeast of Lyndon, KY (from Lyndon, KY: bearing 18°T), and is situated 8.6 miles east-northeast of Jeffersonville. The landscape shifts in subtle increments, moving from the low-slung pastures that define the regional character toward the more shaded, wooded pockets of the periphery. Air in Langdon Place carries a weight of moisture and earth, often catching the golden, honeyed light of late afternoon that seems to cling to the fence lines and the weathered stone outcroppings. While the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the eastern horizon, the immediate ground is occupied by a rhythmic succession of fields and dense thickets that invite a slower, more deliberate pace of observation.
Economic life in Langdon Place remains tethered to the slow cycles of the land, echoing the heritage of a region built on the cultivation of the soil and the quiet industry of the Upper South. Residents move through their days with an awareness of the proximity of E.P. Tom Sawyer State Park, where the preserved acreage offers a reprieve from the encroaching sprawl, keeping the natural fiber of the local environment intact. History here is not pinned to a single grand event, but rather to the steady accumulation of labor and the long-standing influence of the limestone bedrock upon the local architecture and agriculture. Life in Langdon Place persists in the quiet gaps between the larger regional hubs, maintaining a character that feels both grounded in its specific geography and quietly observant of the changing seasons.

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Langdon Place, Kentucky. Coordinates: 38.286552, -85.58492. 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 Langdon Place includes the ZIP code (40241, 40242), 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.
