How to Use This Laurel Hill, Virginia Map

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

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 Laurel Hill, Virginia

Laurel Hill is a locality in Augusta County, Virginia, United States. It has a population of approximately 8,307. The population density is 723.4 people per km². Laurel Hill is located at 38.7059°N, 77.2433°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 24482, 22079.

Laurel Hill occupies a quiet stretch of land where the Middle River carves a deliberate path through the verdant, rolling terrain. It lies 6.6 miles east-northeast of Staunton, VA (from Staunton, VA: bearing 64°T), and is situated 9.3 miles north-northwest of Waynesboro. Beyond the immediate banks of the river, the horizon is defined by the faint, jagged silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains, which stand as a permanent, hazy backdrop to the local landscape. The air here holds a distinct, heavy clarity, especially as the late afternoon sun illuminates the moisture rising from the low-lying Poor Farm Draft. Five miles away, the surface of Massie Pond mirrors the shifting canopy of deciduous trees, while the nearby Unknown Park offers a sanctuary of unmanicured thickets and quiet, shaded clearings that define the physical character of the region.

Laurel Hill retains a subtle, lingering connection to the agrarian traditions that once organized the labor of the surrounding valley. While the economy has shifted toward the modern, measured pace of regional commerce, remnants of older, slower ways of life persist in the architecture and the deliberate habits of those who dwell here. Travelers seeking a more rugged engagement with the earth might venture toward the Rocks Mountain Trail, yet the daily rhythm of Laurel Hill remains anchored to the land closer to home. History is felt not in grand monuments, but in the enduring, quiet patterns of the seasons, as the influence of the distant Paul State Forest filters into the local climate, bringing a cooling, earthy fragrance that settles over the fields after every rain.

About This Laurel Hill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Laurel Hill, Virginia. Coordinates: 38.705876, -77.243298. 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 Laurel Hill includes the ZIP code (24482, 22079), telephone area code (540, 571, 703), county seat of Augusta County (Staunton), and school district assignment (Fairfax 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.
