How to Use This Riverside, Maryland Map

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

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 Riverside, Maryland

Riverside is a locality in Talbot County, Maryland, United States. It has a population of approximately 7,021. The population density is 1037.4 people per km². Riverside is located at 39.4807°N, 76.2419°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 20662, 21663, 21001.

Riverside holds a quiet vigil over the flat, agrarian plains where the horizon stretches thin and pale under the heavy Maryland sky. It lies 4.1 miles west of Talbot, MD (from Talbot, MD: bearing 260°T), and is situated 7.1 miles west of Easton. The Miles River winds through the low-lying terrain only a mile from the center of Riverside, its sluggish, dark water acting as a silent witness to the seasons as they turn the fields from gold to a bruised, winter brown. Beyond the immediate reach of the fields, the land remains largely undisturbed, save for the distant, hazy suggestion of Bacon Ridge that anchors the far western view. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and cooling soil, particularly at dusk when the light flattens against the barns, turning the shadows into long, thin fingers that reach across the gravel roads.

Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Riverside, an economy built upon the stubborn productivity of the soil and the legacy of families who have worked these tracts for generations. While the pace of life maintains a steady, deliberate tempo, the proximity of Perry Cabin Park offers a small, manicured reprieve for those seeking the shade of hardwood stands, while the deeper, more ancient growth of Seth State Forest remains a nine-mile journey away for anyone pursuing the solitude of the timber. Even the memory of Chews Creek, ten miles distant, serves as a reminder of the quiet, inland geography that defines the local character. History here is not written in grand monuments but in the sturdy, unadorned architecture and the persistent, industrious rhythm of a place that values the harvest over the haste of the modern world.

About This Riverside Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Riverside, Maryland. Coordinates: 39.480652, -76.241866. 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 Riverside includes the ZIP code (20662, 21663, 21001), telephone area code (410, 443, 240, 301), county seat of Talbot County (Easton), and school district assignment (Harford 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.
