How to Use This Jacksonville, Ohio Map

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

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.

Jacksonville claims its place within the deep creases of the Appalachian foothills, where the sluggish, amber-tinted waters of Sunday Creek carve a slow path through the valley floor. It lies 10.1 miles north of Athens, OH (from Athens, OH: bearing 6°T), and is situated 8.1 miles east of Nelsonville. The terrain surrounding Jacksonville rises into the sharp, verdant spine of Oregon Ridge, a barrier of timber and stone that holds the morning mists long after the sun has breached the horizon. Only four miles away, the surface of Burr Oak Reservoir catches the sky, acting as a mirror for the changing seasons, while the expansive, heavy silence of the Wayne National Forest - Athens Ranger District - Athens Unit looms just beyond the immediate horizon. Within the Village Of Jacksonville, the air carries a distinct, sharp scent of damp earth and cooling iron, a reminder of the quiet, deliberate pace that defines a life lived away from the frantic sprawl of the plains.

History remains embedded in the dark soil of Jacksonville, where the echoes of the coal industry continue to resonate through the sagging timber of old structures and the weathered faces of those who remain. Once a bustling center of extraction, the economy has shifted toward a more modest, internal rhythm, leaving the remnants of the past to be slowly reclaimed by the encroaching brush. Travelers seeking a connection to this rugged landscape often venture out toward the Wild Cat Hollow Hiking Trail to witness the unvarnished beauty of the surrounding ravines. Near the shadowed depths of Oakdale Hollow, the land retains a sense of enduring stillness, as if Jacksonville is perpetually caught in the long, golden exhale of an autumn afternoon that refuses to fade.

About This Jacksonville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jacksonville, Ohio. Coordinates: 39.47593, -82.079504. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

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.
