How to Use This Chatsworth, California Map

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

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.

Chatsworth defines its boundaries through the rugged, sun-bleached terrain of the northern San Fernando Valley. It lies 3.3 miles west-southwest of Porter Ranch, CA (from Porter Ranch, CA: bearing 248°T), and is situated 9.9 miles south-southwest of Santa Clarita. Browns Canyon Wash marks the landscape with its seasonal, dry-weather path, carving a quiet channel through the earth that gathers the runoff of sudden winter rains. To the north, the elevation rises into the foothills, providing a stark contrast to the flatter plains that stretch toward the center of the basin. The Santa Monica Mountains loom on the distant horizon, their jagged silhouettes grounding the skyline against the intense, golden light of the afternoon. Chatsworth Park North offers a sanctuary of native oak and sandstone formations, preserving the wilder character of the land. The quiet presence of Chatsworth Reservoir adds a still, reflective depth to the local geography, anchoring the surrounding dry brush and grassy expanses.

History in Chatsworth reflects the slow transformation from vast, sprawling rancho lands to a specialized hub of suburban and industrial activity. Early agricultural roots gave way to a diverse economy that eventually embraced aerospace research and light manufacturing during the mid-twentieth century. The rhythm of the work day is dictated by the steady pulse of regional commerce, where office parks and technical facilities share space with residential neighborhoods. Local industry has historically benefited from the proximity to major transit corridors, allowing for the efficient movement of goods and labor across the inland plateau. Chatsworth maintains an enduring connection to its past, where the remnants of old stagecoach routes still haunt the memory of the streets. The transition from rural grazing land to a modern commercial center remains the defining arc of the local narrative.

Cultural identity in Chatsworth is forged in the rugged, sun-drenched intersection of suburban life and the untamed natural world. Residents often gather at local landmarks that celebrate the area’s distinct sandstone formations, which have served as dramatic backdrops for film production for generations. Notable figures such as the legendary actor Fred Astaire found inspiration in the quiet seclusion of the local landscape, maintaining a ranch that mirrored the solitude of the hills. Community events often emphasize the outdoor lifestyle, drawing families toward the shaded trails and open spaces that define the neighborhood character. The pace of life here feels deliberate and unhurried, favoring the dry, warm air of the inland climate over the frantic energy of denser urban cores. Chatsworth remains a place where the architecture of the modern world sits in quiet tension with the ancient, enduring geology of the region.

About This Chatsworth Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Chatsworth, California. Coordinates: 34.257225, -118.601199. 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 Chatsworth includes the ZIP code (91311, 91313), telephone area code (626), county seat of Los Angeles County (Los Angeles), and school district assignment.

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.
