How to Use This Raceland, Kentucky Map

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

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.

Raceland reveals itself through the rhythmic pulse of Pond Run as it carves a path through the low-slung, verdant terrain of the Kentucky landscape. It lies 6.5 miles northwest of Ashland, KY (from Ashland, KY: bearing 311°T), and is situated 2.5 miles west of Ironton. The light here at dusk settles with a heavy, honeyed quality, clinging to the limestone-rich soil and the sheltered slopes of Kennedy Hollow just a mile away. While the distant Appalachian Mountains loom as a faint, jagged suggestion on the furthest edge of the horizon, the immediate character of Raceland remains defined by these intimate folds of land and the steady, unassuming progression of the seasons. Residents often seek the quietude of Raceland City Park, where the trees stand as silent witnesses to the slow, deliberate pace of daily life in this corner of the Commonwealth.

Industrial echoes of the past linger in the region’s economic identity, a legacy built upon the foundational strength of local labor and the steady movement of resources through the valley. Though the Pine Creek Structure Number Eight Reservoir remains a quiet, watery presence four miles distant, the lifeblood of the area has long been tied to the terrestrial rhythms of agriculture and the transition of the regional economy. The influence of the nearby Wayne National Forest imparts a wilder, forested character to the surrounding geography, grounding the spirit of the people in the thick, humid air of the woodlands. Raceland maintains a resilient, quiet dignity, a place where the collective memory of coal-camp heritage and the soft, melodic cadence of the local vernacular color every interaction, keeping the character of the land as enduring as the rock beneath it.
