Explore Duarte, 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 Duarte, 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 Duarte.
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.

Duarte rises from the landscape as a testament to the enduring character of the inland foothills. It lies 1.4 miles east-southeast of Monrovia, CA (from Monrovia, CA: bearing 116°T), and is situated 9.6 miles east of Pasadena. Sunlight catches the golden grasses of the slopes, illuminating the transition from the flatlands toward the distant, rugged silhouettes of the San Gabriel Mountains. To the west, the topography dips into the quiet passage of Scott Canyon, while Sawpit Wash marks the earth with its seasonal presence. Residents find a quiet respite in the greenery of Duarte Park, a space that anchors the local geography. The air here holds a dry warmth, carrying the scent of chaparral and the stillness of the interior.
Duarte traces its origins to the early land grants that once defined the rhythm of this region. The economy has evolved from its agricultural roots into a hub for modern industry and biotechnology, fostering a landscape of innovation. Factories and research centers occupy the zones where orchards once thrived, shifting the labor of the populace toward technical expertise and professional trade. This evolution reflects a broader regional tendency to repurpose the land for the needs of each successive generation. The daily commerce of Duarte hums with a quiet, industrious purpose, far removed from the clamor of the far-off coast.
Duarte maintains a cultural identity shaped by a blend of long-standing traditions and a diverse, modern population. The community gathers for local events that celebrate its unique heritage, often highlighting the spirit of those who settled here generations ago. Among the notable figures who have spent time in the region, the author Upton Sinclair remains a significant presence, having resided in the area during his later years. Landmarks and public spaces serve as the focal points of social life, encouraging a sense of connection among neighbors. Everyday life in Duarte proceeds with a steady, deliberate pace, grounded by the familiar contours of the land.

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.
