Explore Rome, 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 Rome, 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 Rome.
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.

Rome occupies a quiet stretch of land defined by the persistent, winding course of Paddy Creek as it cuts through the earth. It lies 18.4 miles east-southeast of Ironton, OH (from Ironton, OH: bearing 110°T), and is situated 4.8 miles east-northeast of Huntington. The landscape here is characterized by the modest elevation of Pea Ridge, which silhouettes the horizon in a soft, hazy gray, while the nearby expanse of Twin Lakes provides a steady, reflective stillness to the surrounding fields. The air in Rome often carries the scent of damp soil and drying vegetation, a reminder of the deep, inland geography that keeps the town far from the reach of any distant coast. During the late afternoon, the light settles horizontally across the pastures, turning the grasses into a pale, burnished copper that glows with a fleeting, singular intensity.
Rome maintains a character forged by the steady cycles of the land and the endurance of its inhabitants, who have long looked toward the local soil for their sustenance. The Lawrence County Fairgrounds serve as a perennial center for the locality, acting as the primary stage for seasonal gatherings that mark the passage of time in an economy rooted in agriculture and the rhythms of the seasons. While the industrial legacy of the region remains visible in the quiet corners of the landscape, the daily pulse of Rome is measured by the slow, deliberate work of those tending to the fields or traveling toward the more forested reaches of the Wayne National Forest - Ironton Ranger District. To the north, the distant memory of Fitch Hollow shapes the drainage of the land, reinforcing a sense of isolation that feels both intentional and profoundly peaceful.

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.
