Explore Reedy, West Virginia, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Reedy, 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 Reedy.
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.

Reedy occupies a quiet stretch of land defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of the Right Fork Reedy Creek. It lies 26.4 miles south-southeast of Parkersburg, WV (from Parkersburg, WV: bearing 164°T), and is situated 7.8 miles north-northwest of Spencer. The landscape here is characterized by steep, wooded slopes that climb away from the water, creating a topography of narrow passages and sudden, verdant inclines. Only two miles distant, the terrain opens into the quiet seclusion of Happy Hollow, where the air holds the damp, earthy scent of decaying leaves and moss. On the distant horizon, the faint, blue-gray silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains provide a jagged boundary to the sky, serving as a reminder of the vast, forested wilderness that defines the broader region. During the late afternoon, the light here slants low, catching the mist that rises from the creek bed and turning the atmosphere into a translucent, golden haze that settles over the fields.
Reedy maintains a steady, deliberate pace of life that reflects a long heritage of extraction and agrarian labor. While the echoes of past industrial activity remain in the collective memory of the surrounding hollows, the modern economy finds its footing in the local stewardship of the land and the quiet maintenance of rural infrastructure. Residents often seek recreation at Grace Community Park, a space that offers a social anchor for the surrounding acreage, while the nearby Miletree Lakes provide a singular, still contrast to the moving water of the creek. Life in Reedy moves in accordance with the turning seasons, marked by the labor of clearing brush, the tending of small plots, and the slow, inevitable weathering of old timber structures that stand as silent witnesses to the passage of time.

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.
