Explore Crumpton, Maryland, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Crumpton, Maryland. 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 Maryland 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 Crumpton.
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.

Crumpton remains anchored by the steady, dark currents of the Chester River, which carves a deliberate path through the flat, fertile plains of the Eastern Shore. It lies 11.4 miles east of Kent, MD (from Kent, MD: bearing 100°T), and is situated 8.1 miles east-northeast of Chestertown. The landscape surrounding Crumpton is defined by an expansive, low-lying horizon where the sky seems to hold more weight than the earth, pressing down upon the endless rows of corn and soybean fields that define the regional geometry. Three miles away, the quiet waters of Unicorn Lake provide a still contrast to the moving river, while to the north, the distant sprawl of Blackbird State Forest offers a dense, shaded reprieve from the open agricultural grid. The air here carries a heavy, humic scent of turned soil and damp vegetation, a sensory reminder of the agrarian life that persists in the silence of the afternoon.
Crumpton operates with the quiet persistence of a place shaped by centuries of cultivation, where the local economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the harvest rather than the frantic pace of modern commerce. Crumpton Park serves as the modest communal center, a small patch of green where the town’s sparse architecture feels deliberate and unadorned, lacking the artifice of more developed districts. The history of the region is written in the utilitarian structures that line the roads, buildings that prioritize function over aesthetic flourish, mirroring the pragmatic spirit of those who have worked this land for generations. Even as the modern world encroaches, the daily life in Crumpton retains a certain gravity, grounded in the seasonal cycle of the fields and the persistent, slow-moving presence of the Chester River.

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.
