How to Use This North Hills, West Virginia Map

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

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.

North Hills emerges from the dense, verdant folds of the landscape where the water of Pond Run carves a quiet, persistent path through the earth. It lies 2.0 miles east-southeast of Vienna, WV (from Vienna, WV: bearing 111°T), and is situated 4.3 miles northeast of Parkersburg. The terrain here is defined by the steady rise and fall of the ground, a series of slopes that catch the amber light of late afternoon, casting long, lean shadows across the residential streets. While the distant Appalachian Mountains remain a hazy suggestion on the horizon, the immediate environment is defined by the McDonough Wildlife Refuge, which provides a sprawling, uncultivated buffer of silence and thicket. The air carries the distinct, sharp scent of damp earth and decaying leaves, a reminder that the land remains largely governed by the slow, seasonal shifts of the hardwood canopy.

North Hills maintains a character shaped by the industrial legacy of the region, where the echoes of past extraction and manufacturing still influence the local rhythm. Economic life here is tethered to the broader flow of commerce in the valley, though the proximity of Campbell Hollow and the nearby Union Carbide Waste Retention Pond serves as a stark, industrial contrast to the quietude of the surrounding woods. Residents move with a deliberate pace, respecting the boundaries between the encroaching forest and the man-made infrastructure that defines their daily labor. Life in North Hills is marked by a certain stoic independence, a recognition of the weight of history that persists in the quiet corners of the neighborhood and the persistent, flowing presence of the local creek.
