How to Use This Osage, West Virginia Map

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

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 Osage, West Virginia

Osage is a locality in Monongalia County, West Virginia, United States. It is a small community with a population of 82. The population density is 174.9 people per km². Osage is located at 39.6587°N, 80.0076°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 26543.

Osage occupies a narrow, rugged corridor where the landscape is defined by the persistent, winding course of Scotts Run. It lies 3.4 miles northwest of Morgantown, WV (from Morgantown, WV: bearing 306°T), and is situated 8.3 miles west of Cheat Lake. The terrain here rises in steep, verdant embankments, shaped by the slow erosion of centuries that left the earth deep and rich with dark, mineral-heavy soil. Sunlight filters through the canopy in thin, golden shafts during the late afternoon, casting long shadows that stretch across the jagged slopes and emphasize the dense, tangled undergrowth of the hardwoods. While the distant horizon suggests the grand scale of the Appalachian Mountains, the immediate reality of Osage is one of intimate, hollow-bound geography, where the air remains cool and damp even in the height of summer.

Industry and the echoes of the coal-camp era permeate the character of Osage, marking the ground with the remnants of a once-frenetic extraction economy that drew laborers from across the globe. The quiet, daily rhythm of the modern locality stands in stark contrast to the historical intensity of the mines, yet the influence of that labor remains present in the weathered architecture and the resilience of those who stayed. Residents find a quiet respite in the nearby Edith Barill Riverfront Park, a place that offers a brief, open view of the water, while those seeking deeper solitude often look toward the vast, protected reaches of Coopers Rock State Forest. Life in Osage moves with a deliberate, steady pace, anchored by the memory of its industrial origins and the quiet persistence of a landscape that has seen the earth turned and the forest return.

About This Osage Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Osage, West Virginia. Coordinates: 39.658692, -80.007565. 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 Osage includes the ZIP code (26543), telephone area code (304), county seat of Monongalia County (Morgantown), and school district assignment (Monongalia 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.
