How to Use This Littleton, West Virginia Map

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

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 Littleton, West Virginia

Littleton is a locality in Wetzel County, West Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 103. The population density is 60.6 people per km². Littleton is located at 39.6979°N, 80.5170°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 26581.

Littleton reveals itself through the steady, patient carving of the West Virginia Fork Fish Creek, which traces a winding path through the deep shadows of the earth. It lies 24.8 miles northwest of Fairmont, WV (from Fairmont, WV: bearing 307°T), and is situated 19.5 miles southeast of Moundsville. The land here is defined by sharp verticality, where the ground rises abruptly into steep, timber-lined ridges that keep the sunlight sequestered in the narrow floor of Jobes Hollow until well after dawn. In the cool, damp air of morning, a fine mist clings to the dense hardwood canopy, mirroring the quiet persistence of the water as it flows past the rocky banks. The landscape remains raw and unadorned, a place where the architecture of the terrain dictates the movement of the wind and the slow, deliberate pace of the seasons.

Littleton maintains a quiet relationship with the earth, shaped by a history of extraction that left its mark on the local economy and the resilient character of its people. Industry has long ebbed and flowed like the creek itself, leaving behind a stillness that allows the quietude of the Cecil H. Underwood Wildlife Management Area to define the rhythm of the outskirts. Life here is not measured by the frantic pulse of distant urban centers, but by the maintenance of porch lights and the seasonal cycles of the surrounding woods. To the traveler passing through, Littleton offers a glimpse into a persistent, self-reliant existence, where the memory of heavy labor is softened by the enduring, silent presence of the ridges that stand guard over the valley.

About This Littleton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Littleton, West Virginia. Coordinates: 39.697861, -80.517025. 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 Littleton includes the ZIP code (26581), telephone area code (304), county seat of Wetzel County (New Martinsville), and school district assignment (Wetzel 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.
