How to Use This Richmond, Maine Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Richmond, Maine. 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 Maine 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 Richmond.
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 Richmond, Maine
Richmond is a locality in Sagadahoc County, Maine, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,810. The population density is 98.0 people per km². Richmond is located at 44.0990°N, 69.8096°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 04357.Richmond reveals itself through the insistent, rhythmic pulse of Mill Brook, a waterway that marks the landscape with a persistent, silver-threaded energy. It lies 15.5 miles south of Augusta, ME (from Augusta, ME: bearing 184°T), and is situated 9.9 miles south of Gardiner. The air here holds the damp, salt-kissed weight of the Atlantic, a reminder that the open coast waits only twelve miles beyond the horizon. To the west, the distant, shadowed silhouette of Bowdoinham Ridge anchors the skyline, while the land itself dips toward the quiet, low-lying expanse of the Swan Island Flats. Nearby, the stillness of Wade Pond offers a cool, dark mirror to the spruce-fir canopy, and the tidal influence of Clay Cove draws the eye toward the water’s edge. Across the local basin, the presence of Little Swan punctuates the shifting currents, grounding the geography in a series of intimate, interconnected watermarks.
History lingers in Richmond like the low, slanted light of an autumn afternoon, echoing the days when timber and shipbuilding defined the economic marrow of the region. The Steve Powell (Swan Island) Wildlife Management Area serves as a living archive of this stewardship, protecting the land where eagles and migratory waterfowl reclaim the quiet spaces once occupied by the industry of men. Residents move through their days with a steady, pragmatic grace, balancing the remnants of an agrarian past with the quiet shifts of a modern, small-scale economy. In the muted colors of the harbor and the enduring strength of the local architecture, Richmond maintains a character defined by its resilience, standing as a place where the tide and the seasons dictate the pace of every passing year.

About This Richmond Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Richmond, Maine. Coordinates: 44.099038, -69.809567. 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 Richmond includes the ZIP code (04357), telephone area code (207), county seat of Sagadahoc County (Bath), and school district assignment (Richmond Public Schools).
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.
