How to Use This Oak Grove, Kentucky Map

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

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.

Oak Grove reveals itself through a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of inland plains and the subtle shifting of light across open fields. It lies 1.9 miles east of Fort Campbell North, KY (from Fort Campbell North, KY: bearing 86°T), and is situated 9.2 miles north-northeast of Woodlawn. The horizon remains broad and clear, occasionally punctuated by the distant, hazy silhouette of Flint Ridge some seventeen miles away. Moisture gathers in the low-lying basin of Gallows Hollow, where the shadows deepen with an intensity that seems to hold the very weight of the earth. Near the center of the terrain, the gentle flow of Dry Fork Creek carves a narrow path through the soil, offering a steady, rhythmic presence to the surrounding woodland. The atmosphere here carries the scent of damp grass and limestone, particularly when the late afternoon sun illuminates the vast, unobstructed stretches of Kentucky farmland.

Oak Grove traces its heritage to the steady labor of those who first cleared the timber and organized the fertile soil for cultivation. The local economy maintains a resilient connection to these agrarian roots, though the modern rhythm of the region has shifted toward commerce and the support of nearby military activity. Industry in Oak Grove relies on a pragmatic blend of service sectors and localized trade, ensuring that the daily needs of the populace are met with efficient, modest enterprise. Prosperity here is measured not by sudden expansion, but by the consistent upkeep of homes and the enduring stability of small businesses that line the primary routes. This continuity provides a backdrop for a quiet, industrious life where the legacy of the land remains a tangible influence on every transaction and endeavor.

Oak Grove fosters a cultural spirit that favors the unadorned truth of a neighborly handshake and the patient observation of seasonal change. Residents often congregate at Oak Grove City Park, a space that serves as a communal hearth for leisure and the occasional public gathering. The surrounding environment invites quiet reflection, especially for those who seek the stillness found near the banks of Lake Taal during the cooler months. While the region does not boast the sprawling fame of larger metropolitan centers, it possesses a distinct character shaped by the soft, deliberate cadence of the Upper South. The pace of life encourages a focus on the immediate and the tangible, grounding the spirit in the reality of the local terrain rather than the fleeting trends of the wider world.

About This Oak Grove Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Oak Grove, Kentucky. Coordinates: 36.673774, -87.422506. 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 Oak Grove includes the ZIP code (42001, 40165, 42333), telephone area code (270), county seat of Christian County (Hopkinsville), and school district assignment (Christian 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.
