Explore Fairview, 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 Fairview, 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 Fairview.
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.

Fairview rests upon the rugged, undulating terrain of the Appalachian foothills, where the earth rises in slow, deliberate swells toward the distant silhouette of Sandy Ridge. It lies 13.6 miles south-southeast of West Chester, OH (from West Chester, OH: bearing 154°T), and is situated 5.6 miles north-northwest of Barnesville. The landscape is defined by a dense, persistent woodland that yields only to the narrow corridors carved by the persistent flow of Skull Fork, which winds its way through the undergrowth just a mile from the center of Fairview. When the light of late afternoon catches the canopy, the air takes on a heavy, golden quality, illuminating the deep creases of the land that stretch toward the more expansive Sixteen Valley. A quiet stillness defines the atmosphere here, broken only by the rustle of leaves in the Egypt Valley Wildlife Area, where the terrain remains largely untamed and indifferent to the encroaching sprawl of modern industry.
Economic life in Fairview has long been tethered to the shifting tides of the coal and timber trades, leaving behind a weathered resilience that marks both the architecture and the temperament of the people. While the echoes of past extraction remain visible in the topography, the present rhythm of daily life is dictated by the slow maintenance of regional infrastructure and the seasonal demands of the land. Residents often look toward the State Route 800 Reservoir for recreation, finding a sense of permanence in its still, dark waters that contrasts with the transient nature of the local economy. The legacy of the region is not found in grand monuments, but in the enduring way the inhabitants navigate the steep inclines and narrow roads that have connected these isolated outposts since they were first established.

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.
