How to Use This Rumford, Maine Map

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

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 Rumford, Maine

Rumford is a locality in Oxford County, Maine, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,298. The population density is 210.9 people per km². Rumford is located at 44.5448°N, 70.5602°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 04276.

Rumford occupies a rugged expanse of the interior where the forceful currents of the Swift River carve a permanent path through the landscape. It lies 35.2 miles north-northwest of Auburn, ME (from Auburn, ME: bearing 333°T), and is situated 0.6 miles south-southwest of Mexico. The terrain holds a gravity defined by steep, forested gradients and the persistent rush of water, particularly where the dramatic drop of Rumford Falls creates a constant, low-frequency hum that vibrates against the foundations of the buildings. Beyond the immediate rush of the river, the landscape stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Longfellow Mountains, which mark the horizon like jagged teeth against the sky. A short distance away, the quiet basin of Joes Pond offers a reprieve from the kinetic energy of the river, while the open, manicured grounds of the Hosmer Field Complex provide a stark, flat contrast to the otherwise rising and falling topography that characterizes this corner of the state.

Industrial ambition shaped the character of Rumford, leaving behind a legacy of brick and iron that remains visible in the architecture and the deliberate layout of the streets. The local economy has long been tethered to the power provided by the water, a history that echoes in the heavy, utilitarian structures that once processed the timber of the surrounding woods. Life here maintains a steady, deliberate pace, unconcerned with the fleeting trends of more crowded regions, as residents move through a landscape that feels older and more permanent than the industries that built it. Even on quiet afternoons, the air carries a crisp, sharp clarity, and the light at dusk catches the gray stone and dark pine, giving the entire place an appearance of being forged rather than merely built. Whether one wanders toward the remote silence of Siberia Meadows or stays within the grid of the streets, the presence of the water and the sheer verticality of the land define every moment of the day.

About This Rumford Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rumford, Maine. Coordinates: 44.544842, -70.560194. 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 Rumford includes the ZIP code (04276), telephone area code (207), county seat of Oxford County (Paris), and school district assignment (Regional School Unit 10).

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.
