How to Use This Jaffrey, New Hampshire Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jaffrey, New Hampshire. 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 New Hampshire 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 Jaffrey.

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 Jaffrey, New Hampshire

Jaffrey is a locality in Cheshire County, New Hampshire, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,058. The population density is 346.9 people per km². Jaffrey is located at 42.8140°N, 72.0231°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 03452.

Jaffrey possesses a landscape defined by the steady, cooling presence of the Contoocook River as it winds through a terrain characterized by thick woodlands and the remnants of ancient stone walls. It lies 15.3 miles east-southeast of Keene, NH (from Keene, NH: bearing 123°T), and is situated 8.9 miles north of Winchendon. The air here holds a crisp, earthen clarity, especially near the quiet banks of Cheshire Pond, where the light at dusk settles in long, amber ribbons over the water. Beyond the immediate reach of the village, the land rises in subtle, uneven swells, hinting at the distant, jagged silhouette of the Wapack Range that stands against the northern horizon. Travelers passing through Bridge Park find the ground underfoot composed of dense, dark loam and the pervasive granite that has shaped the character of this inland earth for generations.

Jaffrey emerged from a tradition of industrious independence, its early economy carved out by mills that harnessed the water and craftsmen who turned the local timber into durable goods. The legacy of these hard-working years persists in the quiet, focused pace of life, where the memory of those foundational trades still informs the local identity. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Gay State Forest for recreation, or follow the Harling Trail as it snakes toward the lower reaches of Cummings Meadow. While the clamor of modernity occasionally brushes against these borders, the rhythm of the day remains tied to the turning of the seasons and the enduring, stoic architecture of the village center, where the granite foundations seem to ground the very idea of permanence.

About This Jaffrey Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jaffrey, New Hampshire. Coordinates: 42.813973, -72.023136. 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 Jaffrey includes the ZIP code (03452), telephone area code (603), county seat of Cheshire County (Keene), and school district assignment (Jaffrey-Rindge Cooperative 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.
