Explore Oxon Hill, 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 Oxon Hill, 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 Oxon Hill.
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.

Oxon Hill occupies a landscape defined by the steady, persistent flow of the Carey Branch as it carves through the local terrain. It lies 1.2 miles south-southeast of Glassmanor, MD (from Glassmanor, MD: bearing 156°T), and is situated 6.8 miles south-southeast of Washington. This inland geography rests thirty-one miles from any coastline, favoring the quiet density of suburban woods and open fields over the damp reach of the salt air. To the west, the distant silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains occasionally marks the horizon, reminding the observer of the vast, shifting earth that lies beyond the immediate horizon. Within the local borders, the Forest Heights Neighborhood Park provides a quiet anchor for residents who walk beneath the canopy of changing leaves. The air here holds a distinct, heavy stillness during the transition between seasons, grounding the senses in the reality of the inland plains.
Oxon Hill reflects a history deeply rooted in the expansion of land use that once characterized the periphery of the capital. The local economy shifted long ago from agrarian traditions to a modern framework of commerce and service industries that support the surrounding region. Small businesses and professional centers populate the corridors of Oxon Hill, drawing energy from the commuters who traverse the roads each day. While the industrial footprint remains modest, the area maintains a steady pulse of activity that keeps the local economy in a state of constant, pragmatic motion. The legacy of the land is preserved in the work of those who build their livelihoods here, turning the soil of commerce into a reliable foundation for the future.
Cultural life in Oxon Hill finds expression in the diverse voices of its residents, who contribute to a character defined by resilience and steady progress. Notable landmarks emerge as centers for social gathering, while local events often highlight the creative spirit of the neighborhood. The proximity to the Rock Creek Valley and the distant trails like the Rock Creek and Potomac Parkway Terminus offers residents a connection to the wider natural expanse. While famous individuals occasionally emerge from the broader region, the true identity of the place rests in the ordinary, hardworking lives of its people. The rhythm of daily existence here is marked by the shifting light at dusk, which softens the edges of the infrastructure and highlights the quiet beauty of the suburban landscape.

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.
