How to Use This Kimberly, West Virginia Map

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

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 Kimberly, West Virginia

Kimberly is a locality in Fayette County, West Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 213. The population density is 92.2 people per km². Kimberly is located at 38.1408°N, 81.2967°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 26590, 25118.

Kimberly occupies a narrow, rugged crease in the earth where the steep walls of Tucker Hollow rise to meet the sky. It lies 23.2 miles southeast of Charleston, WV (from Charleston, WV: bearing 129°T), and is situated 14.1 miles northwest of Oak Hill. Armstrong Creek carves a persistent path through the limestone and silt, its waters reflecting the deep, verdant canopy of hardwoods that cling to the slopes. The air here holds a cool, damp weight, often caught between the shadows of the hills, where the morning light struggles to reach the valley floor before mid-morning. Even at a distance of seventy-five miles, the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains define the horizon, grounding the landscape in a vast, ancient geological permanence.

Coal once defined the pulse of Kimberly, leaving behind a quiet legacy in the weathered foundations and the lingering, industrious spirit of the families who remain. The local economy has shifted away from the heavy extraction that once dictated the pace of life, yet the influence of that era remains visible in the way the land was shaped and the resilience of the people who call this hollow home. Residents might travel five miles to witness the powerful, rushing descent of Kanawha Falls, or spend a quiet afternoon at the Boomer Ball Field, a modest expanse that serves as a focal point for communal gatherings. Life in Kimberly moves with the deliberate, measured cadence of the seasons, far removed from the frantic noise of larger centers, anchored instead by the steady, unceasing flow of the nearby creek.

About This Kimberly Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Kimberly, West Virginia. Coordinates: 38.140762, -81.296696. 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 Kimberly includes the ZIP code (26590, 25118), telephone area code (304), county seat of Fayette County (Fayetteville), and school district assignment (Fayette 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.
