How to Use This Jamaica, Vermont Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jamaica, Vermont. 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 Vermont 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 Jamaica.

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.

About Jamaica, Vermont

Jamaica is a locality in Windham County, Vermont, United States. It is a small community with a population of 174. The population density is 87.9 people per km². Jamaica is located at 43.1004°N, 72.7784°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 05343.

Jamaica reveals itself through the insistent, cold clarity of Ball Mountain Brook, which carves a path through the valley floor with a persistent, rhythmic urgency. It lies 36.6 miles south-southeast of Rutland, VT (from Rutland, VT: bearing 164°T), and is situated 17.0 miles west of Bellows Falls. The earth here is defined by a dense, arboreal weight, where the shadows of the Winhall Town Forest stretch across the landscape like long, dark fingers reaching toward the lower meadows. To the west, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Taconic Range anchors the horizon, providing a permanent backdrop to the shifting seasonal light that turns the hardwoods from a vibrant, sun-drenched green to a brittle, muted bronze. Visitors seeking a vantage point often ascend the Overlook Trail, where the air thins and the stillness of the high ground emphasizes the vast, interlocking geometry of the woods below.

Jamaica maintains a quiet continuity, its identity tethered to the rugged terrain that has long dictated the flow of local commerce and the slow, deliberate pace of its inhabitants. Jamaica State Park serves as the primary steward of the immediate landscape, preserving the quietude of the riverbanks where the echoes of early timber mills have long since faded into the hum of the modern world. While the agricultural traditions of the past remain visible in the weathered barns dotting the peripheral clearings, the local economy now leans toward the stewardship of the wilderness and the seasonal migrations of those drawn to the deep, silent interior of the state. Even in the height of summer, the cool moisture rising from the earth reminds one that the land is never truly dormant, but merely waiting for the cycles of frost and thaw to redefine its edges once more.
