Explore New Knoxville, 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 New Knoxville, 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 New Knoxville.
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.

New Knoxville sits amidst the flat, expansive plains of western Ohio where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered by the shadow of distant peaks. It lies 14.0 miles east-southeast of Celina, OH (from Celina, OH: bearing 106°T), and is situated 8.2 miles southwest of Wapakoneta. The Center Branch carves a deliberate, narrow path through the silt-heavy soil, its waters moving with a quiet gravity that mirrors the steady, measured pace of the surrounding fields. At the edge of the grid, New Knoxville Community Park offers a patch of maintained green where the wind pulls at the tall grass, signaling the shifting temperatures of the inland plains. Six miles to the northwest, the broad, shallow basin of Grand Lake holds the sky in its reflective surface, softening the harsh, direct light of a high-noon sun. In the late afternoon, the shadows lengthen across the flat expanse, turning the cultivated earth into a deep, rich brown that seems to hold the heat of the day long after the sun has dipped toward the indistinct line of Mount Lookout in the far, hazy distance.
German settlers established New Knoxville in the mid-nineteenth century, bringing with them a legacy of industry and an industrious, self-reliant character that still informs the local economy. Today, the hum of precision manufacturing persists, a quiet persistence that hums beneath the surface of daily life, grounding the economy in the production of specialized engine components and intricate mechanical parts. This industrial focus exists in tandem with the surrounding agriculture, creating a landscape where the sharp edges of factory steel contrast with the soft, seasonal cycles of corn and soy. The social life of New Knoxville remains anchored in the shared labor of its residents and the enduring institutions that have defined its collective identity for generations. On quiet evenings, the air carries a faint, metallic tang mixed with the scent of damp soil, a reminder of a place that values the steady calibration of machines as much as the orderly tending of the land.

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.
