How to Use This Dateland, Arizona Map

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

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.

Dateland emerges from the relentless, sun-bleached expanse of the Sonoran Desert as an improbable oasis of green held against the encroaching dust. It lies 51.5 miles east of Fortuna Foothills, AZ (from Fortuna Foothills, AZ: bearing 79°T), and is situated 49.3 miles northwest of Ajo. The horizon remains vast and flat, save for the faint, serrated silhouette of the Baker Peaks rising in the distance like jagged teeth against the bleached sky. Surrounding the settlement, the terrain is defined by the arid basin of Canyon Diablo and the sprawling reach of State Trust Land, where the soil holds the heat of the day long after the sun dips low. Five miles to the north, the Gila River carves a narrow, verdant vein through the parched earth, providing a vital, if distant, contrast to the surrounding scrub and creosote. When the light shifts to the violet hues of dusk, the desert floor glows with a dull, coppery warmth, and the air thins until it feels as dry and crisp as parchment.

Dateland grew into existence as a quiet stop for travelers traversing the long, shimmering stretches of the highway, eventually finding its purpose in the cultivation of date palms that thrive in the intense, concentrated heat. This agricultural identity anchors the local economy, turning the small crossroads into a destination for those seeking the sweet, sticky harvest of the groves. Life here moves in synchronization with the seasons of growth and harvest, a rhythm punctuated by the steady hum of passing transit and the quiet, persistent labor of maintaining the orchards. The character of Dateland remains defined by this singular, stubborn tenacity, a place where the shade beneath the palm fronds offers a reprieve from the brilliant, unrelenting glare of the southwestern sun.

About This Dateland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Dateland, Arizona. Coordinates: 32.820909, -113.541836. 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 Dateland includes the ZIP code (85333), telephone area code (480), county seat of Yuma County (Yuma), and school district assignment (Antelope Union High 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.
