How to Use This Kingston, Massachusetts Map

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

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 Kingston, Massachusetts

Kingston is a locality in Plymouth County, Massachusetts, United States. It has a population of approximately 5,700. The population density is 457.4 people per km². Kingston is located at 41.9962°N, 70.7215°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 02451, 02364.

Kingston maintains a quiet posture where the landscape yields to the steady, rhythmic pulse of the tides. It lies 3.9 miles northwest of Plymouth, MA (from Plymouth, MA: bearing 310°T), and is situated 6.8 miles south of Marshfield. The Jones River carves a path through the terrain, serving as a vital artery that connects the inland reaches to the salt-tinged air of the Atlantic Ocean a mile distant. Gentle topographical shifts define the area, including the subtle rise of Billington Ledge and the more distant silhouette of Ridge Hill against the horizon. Residents often look toward the water, where the presence of Cooks Island breaks the expanse of the nearby harbor. Beyond the water’s edge, the woods of Duxbury Town Forest offer a dense, green reprieve from the open coastal sky.

Kingston traces its origins to the labor of early settlers who recognized the potential of the river for milling and shipbuilding. This industrial legacy has evolved over time, shifting from the maritime trades to a diverse local economy that values both commercial enterprise and the preservation of its colonial heritage. The water-powered mills of the past have given way to modern ventures, yet the connection to the Jones River remains a defining element of its economic identity. Life here proceeds with a deliberate pace, respecting the traditions of a place that helped shape the early development of the region. Even as the modern world encroaches, the influence of the earth and the sea continues to dictate the terms of local growth and industry.

Kingston fosters a cultural character defined by a sturdy, independent spirit and a deep appreciation for the natural environment. Jones River Park provides a central gathering space where the community can observe the confluence of land and water in a protected setting. The town has been home to notable figures such as the educator and reformer Deborah Sampson, whose service during the American Revolution left a lasting mark on the national consciousness. Public events often reflect a pride in local history, drawing people together to celebrate the unique intersection of riverine and coastal living. Whether walking past the historic homes that line the streets or spending an afternoon near the banks of Lucas Pond, the atmosphere remains grounded in a quiet, enduring sense of place.

About This Kingston Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Kingston, Massachusetts. Coordinates: 41.996182, -70.721545. 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 Kingston includes the ZIP code (02451, 02364), telephone area code (339, 351, 413, 508, 617, 774, 781, 857, 978), county seat of Plymouth County (Plymouth), and school district assignment (Kingston School District).

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.
