How to Use This Rhodell, West Virginia Map

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

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.

Rhodell occupies a narrow crease in the earth where the steady, dark pulse of Stonecoal Creek defines the lower boundary of the settlement. It lies 13.4 miles south-southwest of Beckley, WV (from Beckley, WV: bearing 209°T), and is situated 4.5 miles east-northeast of Mullens. The landscape here is characterized by steep, timbered slopes that rise abruptly from the valley floor, creating a sense of enclosure that keeps the light concentrated and heavy in the hollows during the late afternoon. Beyond the immediate terrain, the distant silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains form a jagged, blue-gray margin against the sky, while the local topography remains defined by the deep, narrow cut of Richland Hollow to the west. Within the immediate vicinity, Rhodell Park serves as a quiet clearing where the air carries the damp, mineral scent of shale and damp earth, a reminder of the ancient, slow-moving geology that dictates the layout of the streets and the paths of the water.

Rhodell maintains a character forged by the long, arduous legacy of the coal industry, which once dictated the rhythm of every household and the movement of every train through the corridor. The economy, once tethered entirely to the extraction of mineral wealth, now reflects a quieter, more deliberate pace as the community navigates the transition away from the heavy machinery of the past. Remnants of this history persist in the weathered architecture and the stubborn pride of those who remain, though the influence of the nearby Camp Creek State Forest and the recreational pull of Flat Top Lake offer a different, more pastoral trajectory for the region. Life in Rhodell is measured in the subtle shifts of the seasons against the ridgelines, where the encroaching hardwood forest slowly reclaims the margins of the old industrial sites, turning the harsh geometry of the coal camp into a softened, enduring landscape of green and shadow.

About This Rhodell Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rhodell, West Virginia. Coordinates: 37.608726, -81.305657. 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 Rhodell includes the ZIP code (25915), telephone area code (304), county seat of Raleigh County (Beckley), and school district assignment (Raleigh 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.
