How to Use This Carey, Ohio Map

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

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.

Carey emerges from the flat, fertile expanse of the Ohio plains, defined by the quiet persistence of the Hay Run as it cuts through the local topography. It lies 11.2 miles southwest of Circleville, OH (from Circleville, OH: bearing 228°T), and is situated 12.7 miles north-northwest of Chillicothe. The landscape surrounding Carey maintains a patient, horizontal gravity, where the horizon stretches wide and unobstructed, inviting the soft, amber light of late afternoon to linger against the grain of the soil. Only ten miles to the east, the silhouette of Plyley Ridge rises faintly against the sky, a distant reminder of the earth’s ancient shifts, while the stillness of the terrain is punctuated occasionally by the nearby presence of Wildlife Production Area 39, which offers a sanctuary for the grasses and the birds that haunt the open fields.

Economic life in Carey has long been tethered to the rhythmic demands of the land and the industry that processes its bounty, creating a culture built on the steady hum of production and the seasonal cycle of the harvest. The proximity of Davenport Pond, six miles away, provides a singular, reflective stillness that mirrors the deliberate pace of the days here, where the echoes of the past remain visible in the sturdy brickwork of the older districts. While the wider region carries the weight of the industrial shift, Carey maintains its own particular gravity, grounded by a history of labor and a landscape that demands a quiet, observant resilience from those who walk its streets.

About This Carey Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Carey, Ohio. Coordinates: 40.945814, -83.386095. 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 Carey includes the ZIP code (43115, 43316), telephone area code (614), county seat of Ross County (Chillicothe), and school district assignment (Carey Exempted Village 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.
