Explore Leesburg, 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 Leesburg, 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 Leesburg.
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.

Leesburg defines the landscape of the Piedmont with its expansive, fertile fields and the persistent, quiet movement of the Town Branch winding through its lower elevation. It lies 4.8 miles west-northwest of Lansdowne, VA (from Lansdowne, VA: bearing 297°T), and is situated 6.4 miles northwest of Ashburn. The inland terrain remains characterized by gentle, cultivated slopes and dense pockets of woodland that frame the horizon. Residents often find solace in the open spaces of Rotary Park, where the air holds a crisp, earthen quality during the change of seasons. On the distant western horizon, the faint, jagged silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains offers a permanent anchor to the vista. For those seeking the stillness of standing water, Kalnasy Pond remains the singular named destination for a quiet hour away from the bustle of commerce.
Leesburg traces its heritage to the early eighteenth century, evolving from a modest crossroads into a vital hub for the regional agricultural trade. The local economy has shifted over the decades from agrarian roots to a sophisticated blend of professional services and modern technical industry. Merchants and craftsmen originally established the grid of the center, creating a durable foundation that survives in the brick facades of the older blocks. Today, the transition from rural traditions to a more contemporary, service-oriented marketplace provides a steady rhythm for daily commerce. This economic evolution has preserved the structural integrity of the district, ensuring that the legacy of the early founders remains visible in the architecture.
Leesburg maintains a cultural character defined by a deliberate balance between its historical preservation and the demands of modern life. Notable landmarks, such as the period homes and public buildings, serve as daily reminders of the figures who once walked these streets, including the noted general George C. Marshall. The calendar remains full with seasonal gatherings and community events that draw the populace into the public squares and shared spaces. Life moves with an observant, measured pace, often punctuated by the sound of footsteps on brick sidewalks rather than the rush of a larger metropolis. Visitors and residents alike recognize the importance of maintaining the local identity against the encroachment of anonymous, sprawling development.

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.
