How to Use This Creston, California Map

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

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 Creston, California

Creston is a locality in Napa County, California, United States. It is a small community with a population of 98. The population density is 67.1 people per km². Creston is located at 35.5171°N, 120.5181°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP codes: 94503, 93432.

Creston unfolds across a landscape of sun-bleached grasses and ancient oak savanna where the air carries the faint, briny sharp of the Pacific Ocean, though the water remains ten miles beyond the horizon. It lies 3.9 miles northeast of American Canyon, CA (from American Canyon, CA: bearing 52°T), and is situated 7.8 miles north-northeast of Vallejo. Fagan Creek carves a quiet, seasonal path through the earth only a mile away, its banks providing a cool reprieve from the heat that turns the surrounding hills a brittle, golden hue by midsummer. To the west, the silhouettes of the Coast Ranges rise fifty miles distant, their jagged edges softened by the perpetual drift of coastal fog. The nearby expanse of Terminal Reservoir reflects the bruised purples of twilight, while the proximity of Lynch Canyon offers a sanctuary of wild, unmanaged fiber and shadow where the land feels as though it has barely been touched by human ambition.

Creston maintains a rhythm dictated by the soil and the slow, deliberate turn of the agricultural seasons. While Jameson Canyon lies three miles off, drawing the gaze toward the deeper basins of the region, the local economy remains tethered to the quiet labor of the fields and the patient stewardship of the land. Travelers seeking the grace of a slower tempo might wander toward Green Valley Falls five miles away, where the water’s descent provides a rhythmic counterpoint to the stillness of the afternoon. Beyond the reach of the busy freeways, the presence of Green Island five miles out serves as a distant anchor in the landscape, a reminder of the geography that defines the character of Creston. Here, the day ends not with the clamor of industry, but with the cooling of the earth as shadows lengthen across the dust and the first stars emerge over the darkened ridges.

About This Creston Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Creston, California. Coordinates: 35.517097, -120.518136. 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 Creston includes the ZIP code (94503, 93432), telephone area code (510, 805), county seat of Napa County (Napa), and school district assignment (Atascadero 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.
