How to Use This Pewee Valley, Kentucky Map

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

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 Pewee Valley, Kentucky

Pewee Valley is a locality in Oldham County, Kentucky, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,588. The population density is 317.4 people per km².

Pewee Valley emerges from the dense, verdant limestone shelf of Kentucky, defined by the narrow, persistent meander of Butler Branch as it cuts through the clay-rich earth. It lies 7.2 miles east-northeast of Lyndon, KY (from Lyndon, KY: bearing 59°T), and is situated 9.1 miles north-northeast of Jeffersontown. Sunlight here possesses a peculiar, heavy quality, filtering through the thick canopy of oak and maple to illuminate the mossy stones that line the creek bed. In the distance, the faint, hazy shadow of the Appalachian Mountains marks the eastern horizon, a reminder of the vast, folded topography that defines the broader region. The landscape remains quiet, save for the seasonal swell of the branch after a heavy rain, while the nearby expanse of Central Park offers a modest, shaded refuge for those who walk the perimeter of the woods.

History clings to Pewee Valley in the architecture of Victorian homes and the fading remnants of its era as a summer retreat for those seeking relief from the humid lowlands. The local economy has shifted from its early days as a railroad-linked destination to a quiet, residential character, where the pace is dictated by the turning of the seasons rather than the frantic churn of larger hubs. Residents recognize the influence of the past in the preservation of original structures, which stand as artifacts of a time when the rails brought travelers through the woodland to settle in the shade of the valley floor. Life here moves with the stillness of a slow-moving stream, grounded by the steady, agrarian rhythm of the commonwealth and the enduring presence of the limestone bedrock beneath the soil.

About This Pewee Valley Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pewee Valley, Kentucky. Coordinates: 38.310625, -85.48746. 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 Pewee Valley includes the ZIP code (40056), telephone area code (502), county seat of Oldham County (La Grange), and school district assignment (Oldham 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.
