Explore Tallmadge, 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 Tallmadge, 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 Tallmadge.
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.

Tallmadge occupies a unique position atop a gentle plateau where the horizon occasionally reveals the distant, faint silhouette of Limestone Ridge. It lies 3.2 miles southeast of Cuyahoga Falls, OH (from Cuyahoga Falls, OH: bearing 135°T), and is situated 4.3 miles east-northeast of Akron. The landscape remains defined by its inland character, positioned far from any oceanic influence and shaped instead by the quiet persistence of local waterways like Kelsey Brook. Residents often find themselves drawn to the stillness of Alder Pond, a small body of water that mirrors the changing colors of the sky. The very center of Tallmadge is anchored by the iconic Tallmadge Circle Park, a green space that serves as the literal and social axis for all movement through the area. Sunlight here possesses a particular clarity during the late afternoon, casting long, sharp shadows across the flat, open lawns of the central park. This terrain invites a steady, deliberate pace of life, grounded firmly in the soil of the Western Reserve.
Tallmadge carries a legacy of planned settlement that continues to influence the organization of its streets and civic life. The economy transitioned over generations from early agricultural roots into a diverse mix of manufacturing and modern industrial service sectors. Workers here have long contributed to the regional industrial belt, adapting to the shifts of the global market while maintaining a localized focus on productivity and trade. The history of the area is written into the architecture of its older buildings, which stand as evidence of a community built on foresight and organized growth. Even as new industries find a foothold, the underlying rhythm of the local economy remains tied to the hard-working ethos of the Ohio landscape. Tallmadge persists as a place where the labor of the past still informs the practical ambitions of the present.
Cultural life in Tallmadge revolves around the shared heritage preserved within its historic district and the vibrant gatherings hosted in the central park. The community celebrates its identity through seasonal events that bring neighbors together to appreciate the local atmosphere and the changing seasons. While many individuals have contributed to the character of the region, the area is perhaps most distinctly linked to the broader cultural narrative of the Midwest, reflecting the resilience and quiet pride of its people. Landmarks within the park serve as a focal point for public life, providing a common ground for reflection and social connection. Visitors often notice that Tallmadge maintains a distinct personality, favoring a sense of continuity and neighborly engagement over the frantic speed of larger urban centers. The spirit of the place is found in these small, recurring moments of civic pride that define the day-to-day experience of its residents.

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.
