How to Use This King William, Virginia Map

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

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 King William, Virginia

King William is a locality in King William County, Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 276. The population density is 23.1 people per km². King William is located at 37.6832°N, 77.0298°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 23086.

King William emerges from the low-slung, verdant plains of the Virginia interior, defined by the slow, deliberate pulse of the Dawson Swamp that winds through the dense, tangled undergrowth nearby. It lies 19.8 miles east-northeast of Highland Springs, VA (from Highland Springs, VA: bearing 60°T), and is situated 16.0 miles northwest of West Point. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness, particularly in the late afternoon when the light turns a bruised, honeyed gold and settles over the unpaved tracks that lace the woods. Far to the west, the faint, jagged silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains occasionally haunts the horizon, a distant reminder of the rugged terrain that gives way to these flatter, quieter reaches. For those seeking the quiet solitude of the pines, the shaded trails of Sandy Point State Forest provide a sanctuary of loblolly and oak, while the nearby Walkerton Millpond reflects the sky in a dark, glassy surface that rarely stirs under the weight of the summer heat.

King William remains a place where the echoes of colonial land grants and agrarian ambition are still legible in the sprawling fields and the rhythmic cycle of the local harvest. While the economy has shifted from the labor-intensive tobacco rows of the past toward modern logistical and suburban roles, the land retains an essential, sturdy character that resists rapid transformation. The pace of life is dictated not by the frenetic ticking of a clock, but by the slow shift of seasons across the pastures and the patient maintenance of the homesteads that have anchored this territory for generations. It is an environment of deep-rooted continuity, where the collective memory of the region is held in the architecture of the older houses and the quiet, persistent work of those who cultivate the heavy, clay-rich earth.

About This King William Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of King William, Virginia. Coordinates: 37.683228, -77.02976. 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 King William includes the ZIP code (23086), telephone area code (804), county seat of King William County (King William), and school district assignment (King William 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.
