How to Use This Burlingame, California Map

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

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.

Burlingame reveals its character through the gentle flow of Easton Creek, which carves a path through the landscape toward the nearby Pacific Ocean. It lies 1.0 miles northeast of Hillsborough, CA (from Hillsborough, CA: bearing 47°T), and is situated 2.7 miles west-northwest of San Mateo. The surrounding terrain transitions from the low-lying basin of Cherry Canyon toward the distant horizon where the Coast Ranges rise in soft, hazy silhouettes. Beneath the expansive sky, the air maintains a crisp, salt-tinged clarity that defines the transition between the urban edge and the wilder coast. Residents often find quiet refuge at Paloma Playground, a space that anchors the neighborhood against the steady, rhythmic movement of the tides just one mile away. On clear afternoons, the light catches the surface of Anza Lagoon, turning the water into a mirror for the shifting clouds.

Burlingame began as a collection of pastoral estates before evolving into a sophisticated hub of commerce and transit. The local economy has matured from its agricultural roots into a diverse engine of professional services and retail, sustained by its proximity to major transit arteries. Early settlers recognized the value of the fertile soil and the moderate climate, laying the groundwork for a community that balances industrious growth with a respect for its heritage. Today, the streets hum with the energy of business professionals and families who appreciate the stability of a town that has successfully navigated the pressures of modern regional expansion. This commitment to maintaining a functional, welcoming atmosphere ensures that Burlingame remains a vital contributor to the regional economy.

Burlingame cultivates a distinct cultural identity that honors both its architectural history and its contemporary, outward-looking spirit. The downtown area serves as a focal point for social life, where the pace of the day slows to match the movement of the coastal breeze through the mature trees. Among the notable figures who have spent time here, the singer Bing Crosby once called this area home, adding a layer of enduring recognition to the local legacy. The community celebrates its unique environment through regular gatherings that highlight the natural beauty of the nearby landscapes and the shared values of its residents. Every corner of the neighborhood offers a glimpse into a life defined by a measured, thoughtful engagement with the Pacific surroundings.

About This Burlingame Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Burlingame, California. Coordinates: 37.584103, -122.366082. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

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.
