How to Use This Barboursville, Virginia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Barboursville, Virginia. 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 Virginia 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 Barboursville.

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 Barboursville, Virginia

Barboursville is a locality in Orange County, Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 177. The population density is 30.5 people per km².

Barboursville occupies a quiet expanse of the Piedmont where the Blue Run traces a winding path through the heavy, iron-rich earth. It lies 14.4 miles northeast of Charlottesville, VA (from Charlottesville, VA: bearing 47°T), and is situated 9.5 miles east-northeast of Hollymead. The landscape rises in modest swells toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains, which stand like a jagged indigo fence against the western sky. In the cool hours of morning, a fine mist often clings to the low-lying fields, blurring the line between the thickets of oak and the open pasture. A few miles away, the quiet waters of Happy Creek Lake hold the reflection of passing clouds, while the trails of Preddy Creek Park provide a sanctuary of pine and hardwood for those who wander from the main roads.

Barboursville carries the weight of a long agricultural legacy, where the red clay once supported vast tobacco fields that defined the local economy for generations. Today, the rhythm of the day is marked by the steady work of viticulture and the careful maintenance of expansive estates, replacing the labor-intensive crops of the past with rows of trellised vines that catch the late afternoon sun. Echoes of older, more turbulent eras remain in the architecture of the surrounding countryside, though the pace has softened into a deliberate, patient existence. Life in Barboursville moves with the sun, favoring the slow maturation of the harvest and the quiet solitude of the inland woods, far removed from the frantic pulse of industrial centers.

About This Barboursville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Barboursville, Virginia. Coordinates: 38.170968, -78.281672. 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 Barboursville includes the ZIP code (22923, 22942), telephone area code (540), county seat of Orange County (Orange), and school district assignment (Orange County Public Schools).

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.
