How to Use This St. Marys, West Virginia Map

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

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 St. Marys, West Virginia

St. Marys is a locality in Pleasants County, West Virginia, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,831. The population density is 690.4 people per km².

St. Marys commands a singular position where the steady, dark flow of The Thoroughfare carves a path through the low, green depressions of Pickens Bottom. It lies 18.9 miles east-northeast of Vienna, WV (from Vienna, WV: bearing 76°T), and is situated 13.4 miles east of Marietta. The landscape here is defined by an intimate proximity to the Ohio River Islands National Wildlife Refuge, a sanctuary of tangled riparian growth and quiet channels that anchors the local ecosystem. While the distant, blue-hued silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains remain far removed from the immediate horizon, the terrain surrounding St. Marys is defined by a dense, deciduous intimacy, where the air holds the damp, fertile scent of leaf mold and river silt. Sunlight in the late afternoon catches the tall grasses of the refuge, turning the riverbanks into ribbons of burnished copper before the light finally retreats behind the jagged, wooded ridges that enclose the valley.

St. Marys maintains a quiet endurance, shaped by generations who have looked to the water and the timber for their sustenance. The local economy persists in a slow, deliberate cadence, reflecting a history that values the tangible output of the land over the fleeting pace of larger industrial centers. Residents move with a steady purpose through the streets, often passing the remnants of a legacy rooted in river commerce and a resilient, independent spirit that characterizes this stretch of the valley. To the east, the stillness of Forest City Lake provides a quiet contrast to the persistent movement of the water, while those seeking the rhythm of the woods often follow the River Trail to observe how the seasons alter the character of the timber. Life in St. Marys remains tethered to these natural cycles, where the change of a season is felt as keenly as the turning of a page in a well-read book.

About This St. Marys Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of St. Marys, West Virginia. Coordinates: 39.391742, -81.205113. 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 St. Marys includes the ZIP code (26170), telephone area code (304), county seat of Pleasants County (St. Marys), and school district assignment (Pleasants 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.
