How to Use This Arbuckle, California Map

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

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 Arbuckle, California

Arbuckle is a locality in Colusa County, California, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,484. The population density is 763.9 people per km². Arbuckle is located at 39.0174°N, 122.0577°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 95912.

Arbuckle occupies a quiet expanse of the flat, sun-drenched agricultural plains where the horizon stretches wide and unobstructed under a vast, pale sky. It lies 25.1 miles west-southwest of Yuba City, CA (from Yuba City, CA: bearing 250°T), and is situated 13.9 miles south of Colusa. The land here is defined by the expansive Colusa Basin, a low-lying reach of earth that drains the intensity of the summer heat and holds the heavy, fertile soil in place. To the west, the distant silhouette of the Coast Ranges marks the limit of the view, their forms often softened by a haze that settles over the fields. Salt Creek traces a subtle, winding path through the local topography just a short distance away, its presence marked by the deeper green of brush that persists even when the surrounding grasses turn to a brittle, bleached gold. Within the center of the grid, LaVanche Hursh Park offers a modest clearing where the air feels still and the light takes on a clarity that seems to sharpen the edges of every leaf and fence post.

Arbuckle remains fundamentally tied to the rhythms of the earth, its economy built upon the cultivation of orchards and fields that define the regional character. The history of the area is written in the rows of almond trees and the seasonal labor that moves in accordance with the harvest, grounding the daily experience in a cycle of growth and collection. While Cecil Lake lies ten miles away as a distant point of repose, the immediate focus of the locality is the steady, industrious work of the land. Life in Arbuckle moves at a measured pace, dictated by the heat of the afternoon and the quiet transition of dusk, when the shadows grow long across the pavement and the wind begins to cool. There is a particular honesty here in the way the architecture of the streets mirrors the functionality of the surrounding farms, creating a space where the work of the day leaves a tangible imprint on the quiet of the evening.

About This Arbuckle Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Arbuckle, California. Coordinates: 39.017396, -122.057748. 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 Arbuckle includes the ZIP code (95912), telephone area code (530), county seat of Colusa County (Colusa), and school district assignment (Pierce Joint Unified 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.
