How to Use This Hume, Virginia Map

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

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.

Hume occupies a quiet corner of the Piedmont, where the landscape unfolds in a series of deliberate, grassy swells that catch the amber light of late afternoon. It lies 12.1 miles east-southeast of Front Royal, VA (from Front Royal, VA: bearing 120°T), and is situated 8.0 miles west-southwest of Marshall. To the west, the distant Blue Ridge Mountains form a hazy, indigo border against the sky, while the immediate ground is defined by the intimate geography of The Cove and the quiet, steady drainage of West Branch Thumb Run. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and cured hay, a stillness that is rarely broken save for the occasional rustle of wind through the brush near Sawyer Pond. Travelers passing through these lanes might notice how the shadows lengthen across the pastures, emphasizing the sheer, unadorned scale of the open fields that define the physical character of the land.

Hume retains a deliberate, agrarian pace, with the surrounding acreage dominated by sprawling properties like Marriott Ranches, which underscore the region’s long-standing connection to livestock and rural stewardship. The economy remains tethered to this primary relationship with the soil, a tradition that persists even as the modern world encroaches from the periphery. Those inclined toward solitude find their way to the Rattlesnake Trail, a path that offers a modest, honest traversal of the terrain, far removed from the busier corridors that lie closer to the urban centers. History in Hume is not a monument to be viewed, but a quiet accumulation of days spent working the fields and maintaining the fences, a cycle of labor that feels as permanent as the woods of Whitney State Forest standing guard in the distance.

About This Hume Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hume, Virginia. Coordinates: 38.832058, -77.999441. 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 Hume includes the ZIP code (22639), telephone area code (540), county seat of Fauquier County (Warrenton), 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.
