How to Use This Jennings, Maryland Map

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

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 Jennings, Maryland

Jennings is a locality in Garrett County, Maryland, United States. It is a small community with a population of 99. The population density is 114.4 people per km². Jennings is located at 39.6487°N, 79.1835°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 21146, 21536.

Jennings occupies a high, quiet plateau where the air holds a thin, sharp edge even in the height of summer. It lies 7.9 miles northeast of Garrett, MD (from Garrett, MD: bearing 47°T), and is situated 19.8 miles west of LaVale. The South Branch Casselman River carves a deliberate path through the landscape, its dark water moving with a steady, muscular weight that defines the low ground. To the west, the horizon is dominated by the distant, hazy blue of the Appalachian Mountains, standing as silent sentinels over the surrounding expanse of woods. Only three miles away, the dense timber of Savage River State Forest stretches across the ridges, while the quiet surface of New Germany Lake reflects the shifting, slate-colored light of an overcast sky. Just a mile from the center of Jennings, the expanse of Savage River Sf provides a vast, open corridor where the wind whistles through the hemlocks and the ground remains soft and damp underfoot.

Economic life in Jennings has long been tied to the stubborn, unyielding character of the soil and the deep timber that once fueled the regional industry. The legacy of extraction and labor lingers in the quietude of the roads, where the rhythm of the day is measured by the slow turn of seasons rather than the frantic pace of modern commerce. Residents often look toward the shadows of Whiskey Hollow, four miles away, where the terrain dips into cool, sheltered pockets that seem to hold the memory of earlier, harder days. Life here possesses a grounded, deliberate quality, marked by the smell of woodsmoke in the autumn and the persistent, low-frequency hum of the river as it pulls against the stones. Everything in Jennings feels settled, as if the land itself demands a certain patience from those who live among its hills and hidden basins.

About This Jennings Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jennings, Maryland. Coordinates: 39.648657, -79.183497. 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 Jennings includes the ZIP code (21146, 21536), telephone area code (240, 301, 410, 443), county seat of Garrett County (Oakland), and school district assignment (Garrett County 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.
