Explore Arthurtown, South Carolina, 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 Arthurtown, South Carolina. 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 South Carolina 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 Arthurtown.
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.

Arthurtown emerges from the flat, pine-studded expanse of the South Carolina interior as a quiet collection of dwellings anchored by the persistent presence of Serenity Park. It lies 3.4 miles southeast of Columbia, SC (from Columbia, SC: bearing 144°T), and is situated 7.9 miles southeast of St. Andrews. Andrews. The landscape here avoids the drama of high peaks, instead favoring the subtle, low-slung horizon where the distant silhouette of Mullers Barn Ridge occasionally catches the amber light of a fading afternoon. Gills Creek meanders through the periphery, its dark, slow-moving waters providing a cool contrast to the heat that radiates from the soil during the long, humid summers. Only three miles away, the surface of Alligator Lake remains a glassy mirror for the clouds, reflecting an stillness that defines the rhythm of the surrounding woods and fields.
Arthurtown maintains a character shaped by the steady, unpretentious labor of its residents and the echoes of its mid-twentieth-century development. The local economy has long been tied to the rhythms of the regional agricultural and light industrial sectors, fostering a culture that prioritizes neighborly reliance over the frantic pace of larger urban centers. There is a particular weight to the air here, a heavy, fragrant warmth that seems to hold the memory of the past, from the modest residential blocks to the communal spaces where generations have gathered. Life in Arthurtown moves with a deliberate, measured cadence, observed in the way the sunlight filters through the tall pines to illuminate the dust motes dancing above a porch rail or the quiet activity of a Saturday morning.

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.
