How to Use This Dartmouth, Massachusetts Map

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

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.

Dartmouth holds a quiet distinction as a landscape defined by the serpentine path of the Paskamanset River, which winds through the terrain with a persistent, steady grace. It lies 2.7 miles west of New Bedford, MA (from New Bedford, MA: bearing 267°T), and is situated 9.8 miles east-southeast of Fall River. The low-lying fields and salt-tinged air suggest a proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, which exerts a subtle influence on the shifting light across the meadows. Visitors often find themselves drawn to the protected serenity of the Paskamanset Preserve, where the natural world remains largely undisturbed by modern clamor. While the elevation remains modest, the distant rise of Tarkiln Hill offers a singular anchor to the horizon, grounding the view in a land that feels both ancient and enduring. The atmosphere here is colored by the cooling humidity of the water, leaving a silvery, reflective quality on the grass during the early morning hours.

Dartmouth bears the weight of a long history, rooted in an agrarian past that gradually transitioned into a landscape of varied industry and commerce. The soil has sustained generations of farmers whose work remains visible in the expansive, open tracts that border the winding riverbeds. Today, the local economy benefits from a diverse collection of enterprises that have replaced the traditional mills of earlier centuries. The intellectual life of the region is punctuated by the presence of the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth, an institution that brings a rigorous, modern energy to the quiet surroundings. This blend of historic preservation and academic advancement creates a unique economic rhythm, where the steady pulse of education balances the legacy of the land. The proximity to Fish Island serves as a reminder of the maritime connections that once dictated the pace of regional trade and development.

Dartmouth cultivates a character shaped by the intersection of scholarly pursuit and a deep, quiet appreciation for the coastal environment. Cultural life is marked by local gatherings and seasonal events that draw the community together, often highlighting the enduring maritime traditions of the surrounding region. Notable figures such as the poet Philip Levine spent time here, finding inspiration in the stark, honest beauty of the New England landscape. Landmarks like the historic colonial structures speak to a heritage of independence and a deliberate, thoughtful way of life. The town maintains an unpretentious spirit, favoring the authenticity of its salt marshes and the open sky over the artifice of more crowded corridors. Even on quiet afternoons, the sense of a place defined by its own internal compass remains palpable to those who walk its paths.

About This Dartmouth Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Dartmouth, Massachusetts. Coordinates: 41.6343, -70.9868. 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 Dartmouth includes the ZIP code (02747, 02714), telephone area code (339, 351, 413, 508, 617, 774, 781, 857, 978), county seat of Bristol County (Taunton), and school district assignment.

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.
