Explore Petersburg, 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 Petersburg, 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 Petersburg.
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.

Petersburg occupies a quiet stretch of the Ohio landscape where the earth settles into a series of modest, cultivated elevations. It lies 10.4 miles southeast of Boardman, OH (from Boardman, OH: bearing 138°T), and is situated 8.7 miles east of Columbiana. Honey Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the local topography, its waters marking the rhythm of the land as they move toward the horizon. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain hints at the distant presence of the West Liberty Esker, which defines the far periphery of the view. The air here holds a particular clarity, especially when the light of late afternoon catches the tall grasses and the dense, quiet greenery of the nearby woods. Residents often find their way toward the stillness of Go-Tag-Along Lake or find recreation in the open spaces of Welker Park, where the local ecology remains preserved and undisturbed by the push of modern expansion.
Petersburg carries the weight of a long agricultural heritage, built upon the sturdy traditions of the Western Reserve. While the regional economy has shifted away from the intensive industry that once defined the broader area, the village maintains a deliberate pace, balancing the influence of neighboring Amish farm country with the ongoing cycles of modern Midwestern life. The history of the region is felt in the architecture of older structures and the persistence of small-scale commerce that serves the surrounding countryside. Those who wander further afield might discover the sudden, rushing energy of Quakertown Falls or the deeper, shaded reaches of Beaver Creek State Forest, both of which offer a contrast to the flat, productive plains found near the more recessed Swamp Hollow. Life in Petersburg remains tied to these natural patterns, where the passage of time is measured not by the clock, but by the changing color of the crops and the seasonal cooling of the creek.

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.
