How to Use This Cumberland Hill, Rhode Island Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cumberland Hill, Rhode Island. 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 Rhode Island 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 Cumberland Hill.

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.

Cumberland Hill maintains a steady, elevated presence above the winding path of the Blackstone River, which carves its way through the local terrain with persistent, quiet purpose. It lies 3.1 miles southeast of Woonsocket, RI (from Woonsocket, RI: bearing 129°T), and is situated 7.9 miles north-northwest of Pawtucket. The landscape surrounding Cumberland Hill unfolds in a series of dense, inland elevations that catch the slanted light of late afternoon, turning the woods into hushed corridors of bronze and deep shadow. Only a mile away, the surface of Sneech Pond reflects the sky with a mirror-like clarity, offering a stillness that contrasts with the constant, rhythmic flow of the nearby Blackstone Gorge. While Satans Kingdom remains a distant, hazy silhouette against the horizon, the immediate vicinity is defined by the intimate presence of Epheta House, which anchors the local environment. Even the rush of water at Albion Falls, located just two miles from the center, adds a percussive, melodic layer to the atmosphere of these woods.

Industrial ambition once fueled the growth of Cumberland Hill, drawing heavily from the kinetic energy provided by the nearby waterways to power the mills that defined the regional economy. This legacy of labor and manufacturing remains embedded in the physical layout of the area, where sturdy architecture stands as a quiet acknowledgment of the generations who organized their lives around the spinning looms and heavy machinery. While the nature of local enterprise has shifted toward modern services and small-scale commerce, the historical reliance on the Blackstone River for transport and power remains a visible thread in the narrative of the landscape. The economic pulse of Cumberland Hill is now more subtle, sustained by a blend of residential stability and the persistent activity of local merchants. Every street corner and repurposed brick building serves as a hushed reminder of the industry that forged the character of this inland space.

Cumberland Hill fosters a culture defined by a deliberate, unhurried pace, where residents move with a familiarity born of long-standing community ties. Life here is punctuated by seasonal events that draw neighbors together, creating a sense of belonging that feels as grounded as the soil itself. Landmark sites, including the quiet grounds of Epheta House, provide spaces for reflection amidst the daily hum of activity. While the world outside may move with frenetic intensity, Cumberland Hill retains a distinct, localized identity that prioritizes the steady rhythms of the seasons. It is a place where the quality of the air feels crisp and clear, untroubled by the salt and humidity of the distant, unseen coast. Residents navigate their days with a quiet pride, recognizing that the strength of their surroundings lies in the balance between the natural landscape and the enduring character of those who live here.

About This Cumberland Hill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cumberland Hill, Rhode Island. Coordinates: 41.974543, -71.467004. 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 Cumberland Hill includes the ZIP code (02864), telephone area code (401), county seat of Providence County (Providence), and school district assignment (Cumberland School District).

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.
