How to Use This Matamoras, Ohio Map

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

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.

About Matamoras, Ohio

Matamoras is a locality in Washington County, Ohio, United States. It is a small community with a population of 864. The population density is 440.8 people per km². Matamoras is located at 39.5204°N, 81.0684°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 45767.

Matamoras maintains a quiet vigil over the banks of the Ohio River, where the water moves with a heavy, deliberate grace toward the horizon. It lies 21.9 miles east-northeast of Marietta, OH (from Marietta, OH: bearing 70°T), and is situated 9.0 miles southwest of Paden City. The landscape here is defined by the steep, forested inclines of Thorn Ridge, which looms over the valley with a brooding, verdant intensity, while the low-lying islands of the Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge break the river’s surface like dark, slumbering beasts. In the golden hour, the light catches the silt-heavy currents, turning the surface into a sheet of hammered copper that reflects the dense, tangled canopy of the nearby Wayne National Forest - Athens Ranger District - Marietta Unit. Beyond the riverbanks, the terrain shifts into the quiet depressions of Johnson Hollow, where the shadows grow long and cool well before the sun has fully retreated behind the ridges.

Matamoras carries the weight of a frontier heritage, shaped by the industrious pull of the river that once funneled timber and coal through the arteries of the valley. While the echoes of early river commerce have faded into a slower, more deliberate pace, the spirit of the place remains tied to the land and the seasonal shifts of the earth. Life here is measured by the turn of the leaves and the occasional trek toward the Lamping Homestead Picnic Grounds Pond, a local respite for those seeking the stillness of standing water. Residents often mark their time by the changing colors of the hillsides or the distant, rhythmic hum of progress echoing from the wider region, yet Matamoras keeps its own counsel, remaining a place where the history of the riverbank is written in the soil and the enduring, unyielding grit of the Appalachian foothills.

About This Matamoras Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Matamoras, Ohio. Coordinates: 39.5204, -81.0684. 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 Matamoras includes the ZIP code (45767), telephone area code (937), county seat of Washington County (Marietta), and school district assignment.

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.
