Explore Haverhill, 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 Haverhill, 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 Haverhill.
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.

Haverhill occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, winding energy of the Merrimack River, which carves a path through the terrain and shapes the very contours of the valley floor. It lies 6.1 miles north-northeast of North Andover, MA (from North Andover, MA: bearing 29°T), and is situated 6.5 miles northeast of Lawrence. Inland from the distant eastern edge of the state, the land rises into subtle elevations that offer a vantage point over the dense, verdant pockets of woodland and the quiet, reflective surface of Lake Saltonstall. To the west, the horizon is anchored by the distant silhouette of Bear Hill, a steady presence that watches over the shifting light of the seasons. Within the municipal boundaries, Gar Park provides a local sanctuary where the air feels heavy with the scent of damp earth and late-afternoon sun, grounding the urban environment in a sense of natural stillness.
Haverhill traces its origins to the early seventeenth century, emerging from the wilderness as a place of grit and industry centered upon the banks of the Merrimack River. The settlement grew through the labor of pioneers who recognized the potential in the convergence of water power and fertile ground, establishing a foothold that would eventually expand from a frontier outpost into a center of manufacturing. As the years progressed, the character of Haverhill solidified, reflecting the endurance of its founders who navigated the challenges of a growing colonial society. This history remains visible in the older architectural footprints that line the streets, serving as a silent record of the generations who transformed the raw, forested landscape into a hub of human endeavor.
Economic life in Haverhill has transitioned through various eras, moving from the rhythmic thrum of traditional manufacturing plants to a more diverse landscape of modern commerce and regional services. Infrastructure projects have long sought to bridge the segments of the city, ensuring that the movement of goods and people remains fluid across the varied topography. While higher education institutions provide a steady intellectual undercurrent, the daily pulse of the economy is driven by a mix of small-scale enterprises and professional service providers that support the local population. The industrious spirit that once defined the riverfront continues to manifest in the way the city manages its resources, balancing the preservation of its older industrial districts with the forward-looking needs of a contemporary workforce.
Cultural vitality in Haverhill expresses itself through a variety of communal gatherings and the quiet appreciation of its landmark architecture, which stands as a testament to local pride. While the city does not host major professional sports franchises, the community finds its spirit in the spirited competition of regional college athletics and local school programs that draw residents to the bleachers under the crisp autumn sky. Famous figures, such as the poet John Greenleaf Whittier, have left an indelible mark on the local identity, their legacies woven into the literary and historical consciousness of the people. Throughout the year, festivals bring the neighborhood to life, drawing energy from the proximity of the Merrimack River and the shared heritage of those who call Haverhill their home, all while the nearby Georgetown Rowley State Forest offers a quiet retreat for those seeking the solitude of the deep woods.

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.
