Explore Jerry City, 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 Jerry City, 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 Jerry City.
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.

Jerry City emerges from the expansive flatlands of northwestern Ohio as a quiet grid of streets defined by the steady, unassuming presence of Bull Creek. It lies 8.7 miles south-southeast of Bowling Green, OH (from Bowling Green, OH: bearing 164°T), and is situated 6.2 miles northeast of North Baltimore. The topography here is dictated by the ancient, glacial leveling of the plains, where the horizon stretches wide and unobstructed, allowing the afternoon light to linger in long, amber streaks across the fallow fields. To the west, the subtle rise of Callahan Ridge breaks the monotony of the earth, providing a faint, darkened silhouette against the dusk. Only a few miles away, the protected expanse of Wildlife Production Area 8 offers a sanctuary of tall grasses and seasonal marshland, where the air carries the sharp, clean scent of damp soil and coming frost, grounding the landscape in a rhythm dictated by the turning of the seasons rather than the haste of modern life.
History in Jerry City is measured in the persistence of its agrarian roots and the slow, deliberate pulse of its local economy. The legacy of the region’s development remains etched in the modest frame houses and the sturdy, functional architecture that serves the surrounding farmland, reflecting a heritage built on patience and the cultivation of fertile ground. While the hum of distant industry echoes faintly from the broader regional belt, the life of Jerry City remains tethered to the cycles of the harvest and the quiet maintenance of its own borders. Those seeking the stillness of the water might venture toward the shores of Van Buren Lake, yet the true character of the locality is found in the way the shadows lengthen over the intersection of its main thoroughfares, marking a place that favors the quiet continuity of its own existence over the noise of the outside world.

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.
