Explore Groveland, Massachusetts, 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 Groveland, 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 Groveland.
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.

Groveland occupies a quiet stretch of land defined by the steady, persistent presence of the Merrimack River flowing along its border. It lies 2.6 miles east-southeast of Haverhill, MA (from Haverhill, MA: bearing 115°T), and is situated 8.9 miles west-northwest of North Shore. The terrain rises in subtle, thoughtful shifts from the water’s edge toward higher ground, creating a landscape that feels settled and deliberate. Beyond the immediate banks, the land is marked by the expansive, quiet reaches of the Groveland Water Supply Land, which serves as a protected anchor for the local ecosystem. Looking toward the horizon, one might catch a faint, distant suggestion of Bear Hill standing as a silhouette against the shifting gray light of the late afternoon. This inland environment keeps a steady pace, removed from the frantic energy of the coast, where the air holds the scent of damp earth and cooling timber.
Groveland carries the weight of a long, industrious past that once relied heavily on the production of shoes and leather goods to sustain its modest economy. These early workshops and factories have largely transitioned into modern residential spaces, leaving behind a legacy of hard-won craftsmanship that still informs the local work ethic. Today, the economy has shifted toward professional services and smaller commercial ventures that support a population of commuters and local families. While the heavy industry of the previous century has faded, the structural evidence of that ambition remains in the older brick buildings scattered across the center. The people of Groveland maintain a pragmatic approach to development, balancing the preservation of their historic footprint with the necessities of contemporary life.
Cultural life in Groveland is rooted in the quiet traditions of a community that values its independence and the slow change of the seasons. Local gatherings are often held in spaces near the Groveland Water Supply Land, where residents enjoy the solitude of the woods and the uncomplicated beauty of the changing foliage. The town has been home to notable figures such as the poet John Greenleaf Whittier, whose work often reflected the agrarian spirit and the specific, muted colors of the New England landscape. Events held throughout the year emphasize a connection to the land and a respect for the neighbors who share it. Residents often travel toward the greenery of the Georgetown Rowley State Forest for respite, finding a stillness that mirrors the character of the town itself.

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.
