How to Use This Powellville, Maryland Map

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

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 Powellville, Maryland

Powellville is a locality in Wicomico County, Maryland, United States. It is a small community with a population of 188. The population density is 46.1 people per km². Powellville is located at 38.3287°N, 75.3755°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 21850, 21852.

Powellville reveals itself through the steady, amber-hued pulse of the Adkins Race, a waterway that charts a quiet path through the flat, low-lying topography of the Eastern Shore. It lies 12.2 miles north-northeast of Worcester, MD (from Worcester, MD: bearing 15°T), and is situated 8.6 miles west of Berlin. The air here holds a heavy, salt-sweet moisture, drifting inland from the distant, unseen expanse of the Assawoman Bay, while the horizon is anchored by the muted, earthen rise of Beech Ridge. Just four miles to the west, the Wicomico State Forest spreads its dense canopy, providing a dark contrast to the open agricultural fields that define the immediate landscape. At the center of this rural stretch, Adkins Mill Park offers a stillness where the light at dusk settles in long, bruised purples across the water, turning the surrounding marshes into a mirror for the slow-drifting clouds.

Powellville carries the weight of a history rooted in the grit of agrarian labor, where the economy has long leaned upon the fertile, dark soil and the rhythms of the seasons. The local character remains inseparable from the legacy of the mill, which once served as the gravitational center for the community, drawing neighbors together to process the harvest of the fields. Beyond the immediate reach of the park, the land feels ancient and settled, with Steves Island and the nearby Parker Pond marking the geography of a region that keeps to its own pace. Life in Powellville is measured by the turn of the plow and the subtle shifting of the tides, a quiet existence where the modern world feels distant, filtered through the rustling leaves of the hardwood stands and the persistent, low hum of the countryside.
