Explore Woodlawn, 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 Woodlawn, 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 Woodlawn.
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.

Woodlawn occupies a high, quiet plateau where the earth folds into long, slow swells of pasture and timber. It lies 31.4 miles south-southwest of Radford, VA (from Radford, VA: bearing 206°T), and is situated 7.0 miles northeast of Galax. A deep, terrestrial stillness defines the landscape, punctuated only by the shallow, clear passage of Crooked Creek, which winds through the verdant lowlands just a mile from the center. Beyond the immediate fields, the far horizon holds the faint, bruised-blue silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains, a jagged line that anchors the sky. The atmosphere here possesses a distinct clarity, particularly as the afternoon light thins, casting long, lean shadows across the grasses that seem to hold the heat of the day long after the sun has slipped away.
Woodlawn maintains a pace dictated by the seasonal requirements of agriculture and the quiet persistence of rural industry, far removed from the frantic commerce of the lowland corridors. History remains legible in the weathered fence lines and the sturdy, unadorned architecture of the older homesteads that look toward the basin of Chiswell Hole. Residents often seek the solitude of the Crooked Creek Wildlife Management Area, where the land remains largely untamed, or spend idle hours near the still, reflective surface of Kennedys Lake. Life in Woodlawn is a matter of steady maintenance and deep-rooted habit, characterized by a profound respect for the soil and a preference for the kind of silence that only exists when the nearest city is a memory of a distant road.

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.
