How to Use This Woodlawn, Maryland Map

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

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 Woodlawn, Maryland

Woodlawn is a locality in Prince George's County, Maryland, United States. It has a population of 39,986. The population density is 1618.5 people per km². Woodlawn is located at 39.3055°N, 76.7478°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 21904, 21875, 21244.

Woodlawn sits upon a landscape defined by the rhythmic pull of the nearby coast, where the heavy, humid air carries a faint salt-tide memory from the Navy Yard Channel twenty-one miles away. It lies 1.1 miles north-northeast of Landover, MD (from Landover, MD: bearing 15°T), and is situated 8.7 miles east-northeast of Washington. The terrain here transitions from the flat, low-lying coastal plain into a series of subtle rises, punctuated by the cooling presence of Beaverdam Creek, which carves a modest, verdant path through the local topography. At the edge of the neighborhood, Glen Ridge Community Park provides a quiet expanse of managed green, offering a place where the light at dusk settles in long, amber strips across the grass. Though the distant Appalachian Mountains remain a jagged, elusive promise on the western horizon, the immediate character of the land is shaped by the proximity of water, with Lake Artemesia reflecting a pale, silver sky that deepens to violet as the afternoon wanes.

Woodlawn functions as a pragmatic anchor in the regional economy, bridging the space between suburban domesticity and the dense industrial currents that drive the surrounding corridor. The history of the area is etched into the modest architecture of its older streets, where the influence of colonial roots lingers in the sturdy, deliberate construction of the houses. Life in Woodlawn moves with a measured, industrious pace, sustained by the steady hum of commerce and a quiet commitment to regional stability. Residents often look toward the broader horizon, aware that while the Burnham Barrier lies five miles away and the Piney Branch Valley and Valley Trail offer their own distinct geographic character further out, the local identity remains rooted in this particular convergence of water, wood, and work.

About This Woodlawn Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Woodlawn, Maryland. Coordinates: 39.305504, -76.747783. 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 Woodlawn includes the ZIP code (21904, 21875, 21244), telephone area code (410, 443), county seat of Prince George's County (Upper Marlboro), and school district assignment (Baltimore 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.
