About radiusaround.me
A geolocation-first radius mapping tool — every number computed from your input via a published formula, every basemap tile attributable to a primary source.
Why this site exists
"How far is a 25-mile radius, really?" is a question people search for millions of times a year, and the existing answers are usually either a competitor's screenshot walkthrough or a heavy, ad-laden tool that takes ten seconds to load. This site is a small, fast, honest alternative: one tap gets a straight-line radius drawn around you, with the exact geometry spelled out below the map.
It's also a work-in-progress. Population counts and drive-time isochrones are the two features people ask for most, and neither ships until the underlying data sources are verified end-to-end. See /data-sources for what's landed and what's on the roadmap.

Master of Pharmacy and BSc in Physics. The physics background is why the four outputs are grounded in explicit geometry formulas rather than heuristics — every number on this site is one you can reproduce by hand.
I build small, data-transparent tools across a portfolio of maps and data sites. Every page ships with its author, its data source, and its methodology visible — no anonymous SEO content, no fake reviews, no synthesized statistics.
Editorial standards
- Verified or omitted. Every factual claim traces to a verified primary source or is not rendered.
- Formulas disclosed. Any computed number lists the equation that produced it and the unit conventions used.
- Real author, real credentials. No persona bylines, no fabricated first-person experiences.
- Corrections welcome. If you find a number that doesn't reconcile, please write in via /contact.
