Explore Burbank, California, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Burbank, 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 Burbank.
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.

Burbank claims a distinct place upon the inland floor of the valley, defined by the concrete path of the Burbank Western Channel that carries seasonal runoff through the heart of the landscape. It lies 2.0 miles northwest of Sepulveda, CA (from Sepulveda, CA: bearing 312°T), and is situated 9.6 miles north-northwest of Los Angeles. The geography of Burbank remains grounded in the solid earth of the basin, situated far from any tidal influence where the air retains a dry, crisp quality during the long afternoons. To the north and east, the jagged silhouettes of the San Gabriel Mountains rise against the sky, standing as a distant, immutable boundary that catches the last amber light of the day. Local residents often find quiet relief at Robert R. Ovrom Park and Community Center, a space that serves as a terrestrial anchor for the neighborhood. Beyond the paved streets, the nearby terrain holds the memory of wilder expanses, with the quiet waters of Western Reservoir providing a singular point of stillness just a short distance away.
Historical roots in Burbank reach back to the era of large-scale land grants, when the transition from open grazing to organized settlement began to reshape the terrain. David Burbank, a dentist and entrepreneur, purchased a significant portion of the former Rancho Providencia and Rancho San Rafael, effectively setting the stage for the development of a permanent municipality. Over the decades, Burbank evolved from a quiet agricultural center into a specialized hub for modern industry, drawing people who sought to build lives around the growing promise of the twentieth century. The architecture of the region reflects this steady progression, where the pragmatic designs of early commercial buildings give way to the sprawling footprints of soundstages and administrative offices. This legacy of transformation remains visible in the way the streets are laid out, following the logical, industrious pulse of a place designed for productivity.
Economy and infrastructure in Burbank are dominated by the immense machinery of the entertainment industry, which dictates the rhythm of the workweek and the flow of commuters. Massive studio lots and production facilities occupy vast tracts of land, creating a specialized labor market that supports thousands of creative and technical roles. While the media giants define the skyline, Burbank also maintains a robust infrastructure that includes a regional airport and a network of transit lines connecting the workforce to the wider region. Educational opportunities are supported by local institutions, including Woodbury University, which emphasizes professional development and design in a manner that mirrors the town’s own vocational focus. The daily commerce of the area is supported by a dense web of service providers, ensuring that the needs of a modern, fast-moving population are met within the confines of the basin.
Cultural life in Burbank vibrates with the energy of a professional creative class, where the lines between the workplace and the public square often blur. Major annual events and festivals frequently draw crowds to the downtown corridors, celebrating the unique history of film and television production that has made Burbank a household name across the globe. Landmarks such as the iconic studio water towers serve as silent sentinels, marking the geography of a place where famous actors and directors have long walked the streets. For those seeking a connection to the natural landscape, the Bridle Trail offers a path into the hills, providing a reprieve from the intense focus of the studio environment. While professional sports remain a matter of regional allegiance, the true character of Burbank is found in the everyday persistence of its residents, who live and work beneath the wide, cloud-dappled sky of the inland plains.

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.
