How to Use This Oak Hill, West Virginia Map

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

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.

Oak Hill rises from the rugged plateau, defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of Big Run as it cuts through the dense woodland. It lies 37.6 miles southeast of Parkersburg, WV (from Parkersburg, WV: bearing 129°T), and is situated 19.7 miles east-northeast of Spencer. The land here holds a quiet weight, marked by the deep, shadowed creases of Poplar Hollow and the expansive, verdant reach of the forest that blankets the horizon. In the late afternoon, the light turns a bruised gold, catching the edges of the hardwoods and illuminating the sheer, quiet endurance of the earth. Beyond the immediate terrain, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains serves as a constant reminder of the vast, ancient reach of this landscape, while the Stumptown Wildlife Management Area offers a sanctuary of unbroken timber just a short distance away.

Oak Hill maintains a character forged in the furnace of the regional coal industry, a history that lingers in the architecture and the deliberate, steady pace of the people who reside here. While the local economy has shifted from the intense, subterranean labor of the past, the town retains a sense of self-reliance that echoes the spirit of those who first cleared these slopes. Life here moves with the seasons, from the damp, waking chill of early spring to the heavy heat of summer, often punctuated by the quietude found near the distant shores of Miletree Lakes. Those seeking the rhythms of the land often find their way toward the Park View Trail, moving through a geography that demands respect for its scale and its long, enduring memory of work and survival.

About This Oak Hill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Oak Hill, West Virginia. Coordinates: 37.977527, -81.157128. 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 Oak Hill includes the ZIP code (25271, 25879), telephone area code (304), county seat of Calhoun County (Grantsville), 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.
