Explore King George, Virginia, 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 King George, 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 King George.
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.

King George unfolds across a landscape of quiet, agrarian patience, where the Dogue Run carves a modest path through the dense, verdant growth of the local terrain. It lies 15.2 miles east of Fredericksburg, VA (from Fredericksburg, VA: bearing 99°T), and is situated 8.4 miles west-southwest of Dahlgren. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness that clings to the skin at dusk, cooling only when the shadows of the distant Blue Ridge Mountains begin to deepen the horizon into shades of bruised violet. Beyond the immediate canopy, the earth yields to the sprawling expanse of Hunter Field, a grounding presence that keeps the wilder edges of the brush in check. Further out, the terrain dips toward the low-lying moisture of Tetotum Flats, while the tranquil surface of Jones Pond remains a secluded mirror for the passing clouds, far removed from the press of more frantic geographies.
King George carries the weight of a long, deliberate history, moving forward with an economy that balances the legacy of the soil with the modern demands of technical industry. The rhythm of daily life is measured not by the clock, but by the slow, steady transitions of the seasons that once favored tobacco and now support a more diversified, disciplined workforce. Residents move with a practiced ease, traversing the regional routes that connect the quiet solitude of Doncaster State Forest to the wider world beyond. Whether walking the quiet stretches of the Kell Trail or navigating the intersection of colonial memory and contemporary labor, the people of King George maintain a distinct, unpretentious composure that feels as enduring as the stubborn, clay-heavy earth beneath their feet.

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.
