How to Use This Fairview, West Virginia Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Fairview, West 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 West 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 Fairview.
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.

ZIP codes: 26377, 26570.Fairview occupies a quiet stretch of land where the Tug Fork carves its way through the earth, marking the steady, persistent passage of water against the hillside. It lies 51.8 miles south of Huntington, WV (from Huntington, WV: bearing 171°T), and is situated 1.4 miles west of Williamson.
The Appalachian Mountains loom as a distant, hazy silhouette against the horizon, anchoring a landscape defined by the steep incline of Oil Well Hollow and the quiet expanse of Lefty Hamilton Park. Fairview exists as a place of deliberate movement, where the air holds the scent of damp earth and the lingering memory of industry that once pulled resources from the deep ground. The local economy persists with a quiet resilience, tethered to the terrain that shaped its early settlement and the rhythmic, unadorned life of those who remain. Residents might travel eleven miles to find the stillness of Cotigo Lake, yet the character of Fairview is forged here, in the shadow of the ridges, where the light at dusk turns the canopy a bruised, metallic violet and the silence of the valley feels heavy with a long, unwritten history.

About This Fairview Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fairview, West Virginia. Coordinates: 39.592703, -80.246765. 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 Fairview includes the ZIP code (26377, 26570), telephone area code (304), county seat of Mingo County (Williamson), and school district assignment (Marion County School District).
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.
