Explore Alexandria, Ohio, 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 Alexandria, Ohio. 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 Ohio 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 Alexandria.
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.

Alexandria emerges from the quiet intersection of low-slung, fertile plains and the steady, unassuming presence of Careys Run, which carves a modest path through the local topography. It lies 2.8 miles west of Portsmouth, OH (from Portsmouth, OH: bearing 260°T), and is situated 6.5 miles southwest of Clay Township Scioto County. The landscape here is defined by a sense of measured openness, where the horizon is interrupted only by the distant, rounded silhouette of Peach Orchard Hill rising three miles to the west. A short distance away, the elevation shifts into the quiet topography of Bradford Hollow, creating a subtle, bowl-like depression in the earth. The air, heavy with the scent of damp soil and seasonal grasses, carries a stillness that suggests the persistence of the land itself. At Earl Thomas Conley Riverside Park, the ground meets the water in a quiet communion, offering a space where the rhythm of the day is marked solely by the slow movement of the clouds and the shifting shadows cast across the fields.
Alexandria retains the quiet character of an agricultural foundation, built upon the labor of those who recognized the utility of the nearby waterways and the richness of the surrounding soil. While the economy has evolved from its early agrarian roots into a modern blend of regional commerce and local enterprise, the pace remains tethered to the cycles of the seasons rather than the frantic tempo of industrial centers. Life in Alexandria is marked by the deliberate maintenance of local traditions, where the community values the quietude of its own geography, far removed from the pressures of larger metropolitan hubs. Residents look toward Bear Creek Lake, eight miles distant, as a place of respite, yet they find their primary connection to the earth in the immediate, familiar ground of their own neighborhood. The character of the place is not found in grand monuments, but in the enduring way the morning light catches the fence lines and the persistent, quiet gravity of a life lived close to the land.

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.
