How to Use This Gum Spring, Virginia Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Gum Spring, 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 Gum Spring.

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 Gum Spring, Virginia

Gum Spring is a locality in Goochland County, Virginia, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,800. The population density is 35.0 people per km². Gum Spring is located at 37.7757°N, 77.8967°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 23065.

Gum Spring occupies a quiet intersection of the Virginia Piedmont, where the land settles into a series of broad, timbered swells and heavy clay soils. It lies 16.4 miles west-northwest of Wyndham, VA (from Wyndham, VA: bearing 289°T), and is situated 17.8 miles west-northwest of Short Pump. Rocketts Creek cuts a modest, winding path through the local topography, its dark waters providing a persistent, low-frequency pulse to the surrounding woods. To the west, the silhouettes of the Blue Ridge Mountains occasionally sharpen against the horizon during the crisp, thin light of late autumn, reminding the observer of the vast, folded interior that separates this plateau from the salt-free stillness of the inland plains. The air here holds a particular weight, smelling of pine needles and damp earth, especially near the quiet surface of Sheltons Millpond, where the stillness of the water seems to mirror the deliberate pace of the passing days.

Gum Spring maintains a character defined by its long-standing connection to the land and the quiet transition from agrarian roots to the modern, commuter-influenced rhythm of the corridor. Much of the local economy reflects this shift, blending remnants of legacy land use with a steady, quiet integration into the broader regional infrastructure. Residents often seek the solitude of Hidden Rock Park, where the forest canopy offers a reprieve from the encroaching hum of the highway, allowing the memory of the area’s colonial-era foundations to persist in the shadow of contemporary development. Life in Gum Spring moves with an unforced gravity, where the shift from the morning fog to the amber glow of a long afternoon feels less like a change in time and more like a slow, turning wheel.

About This Gum Spring Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gum Spring, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.7757, -77.896662. 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 Gum Spring includes the ZIP code (23065), telephone area code (804), county seat of Goochland County (Goochland), and school district assignment.

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.
