How to Use This Indio Hills, California Map

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

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 Indio Hills, California

Indio Hills is a locality in Riverside County, California, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,048. The population density is 18.5 people per km². Indio Hills is located at 33.8411°N, 116.2485°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 92241.

Indio Hills unfurls as a sun-bleached expanse where the arid earth meets a sky of unrelenting, pale clarity. It lies 7.7 miles north of Indio, CA (from Indio, CA: bearing 353°T), and is situated 6.9 miles north-northeast of Bermuda Dunes. The landscape is defined by the sharp, tectonic architecture of the Indio Hills, which rise from the desert floor like a jagged spine, casting long, bruised shadows across the basin as the afternoon wanes. To the north, the terrain funnels into the raw, wind-sculpted rock of Pushawalla Canyon, where the silence is absolute and the geology feels ancient, exposed, and indifferent to the passage of human time. Here, the air carries a dry, mineral heat, and the soil—a mosaic of gravel and sand—shifts under the weight of the rare, sudden rains that occasionally scour the dry beds of the Whitewater River.

Life in Indio Hills is anchored by a quiet stewardship of the land, most notably within the Coachella Valley Fringe-Toed Lizard Area of Critical Environmental Concern, a sanctuary that preserves the delicate equilibrium of this fragile ecosystem. Hikers and researchers who traverse the Hidden Horseshoe and Pushawalla Palms Trail find themselves moving through a landscape that has long been shaped by the interplay of seismic activity and the slow evaporation of water from the distant, saline remnants of Lake Cahuilla. The local economy remains tethered to this stark reality, favoring a pace that respects the limitations of the desert while acknowledging the intense, brilliant light that defines every hour. As evening settles, the heat dissipates into a thin, cool clarity, revealing the quiet resilience of a place that remains stubbornly, beautifully itself.

About This Indio Hills Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Indio Hills, California. Coordinates: 33.84106, -116.248473. 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 Indio Hills includes the ZIP code (92241), telephone area code (714), county seat of Riverside County (Riverside), and school district assignment (Desert Sands 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.
