Explore Quinton, 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 Quinton, 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 Quinton.
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.

Quinton unfolds across a landscape of dense, verdant woodlands and quiet, fertile fields where the air carries the scent of damp earth and pine needles. It lies 11.4 miles east of Highland Springs, VA (from Highland Springs, VA: bearing 94°T), and is situated 18.6 miles east of Richmond. The terrain is defined by the heavy, humid presence of Clopton Swamp, which snakes through the undergrowth, its dark, still waters reflecting the shifting patterns of the canopy above. Far to the west, the faint, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains occasionally graces the horizon on the clearest of days, though the immediate vicinity remains a domain of low-lying brush and shadowed forest floors. A stillness permeates the woods here, broken only by the rhythmic pulse of insects or the sudden, sharp flight of a bird through the thickets, while the light at dusk settles in long, amber slats across the pine needles, turning the forest floor into a mosaic of gold and deep, cooling gray.
Quinton serves as a quiet witness to the layered history of the region, where the remnants of agricultural traditions linger in the patterns of the land and the spacing of old homesteads. While the local economy has shifted away from the intensive tobacco cultivation that once dominated the horizon, the pace of life remains tethered to the slow, deliberate work of maintaining these expansive plots and private holdings. Residents often find their way to Izaak Walton Park for recreation, finding space to breathe amidst the managed greenery that contrasts with the wilder stretches of the nearby countryside. Though the bustle of modern industry hums in the distance, Quinton holds onto a measured, solitary character, occasionally punctuated by the quiet transit of travelers moving toward the deeper interior or the distant, shimmering surface of Diascund Creek Reservoir.

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.
