How to Use This La Vina, California Map

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

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 La Vina, California

La Vina is a locality in Madera County, California, United States. It is a small community with a population of 637. The population density is 2435.1 people per km². La Vina is located at 36.8805°N, 120.1104°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 93637.

La Vina emerges from the flat, sun-bleached expanse of the Central Valley as a quiet study in agricultural persistence. It lies 6.2 miles south-southwest of Madera, CA (from Madera, CA: bearing 206°T), and is situated 9.9 miles south-southwest of Madera Acres. The horizon is dominated by the vast, open plains that stretch toward the distant, jagged silhouette of the Sierra Nevada, their peaks often blurring into the haze of the afternoon heat. Near the outskirts, the landscape finds a rare, concentrated stillness at Parkwood Park, where the dry grasses lean away from the wind. Only three miles away, the steady movement of Main Number Two provides a meager, necessary pulse of moisture to the surrounding fields, carving a narrow path through the dusty earth. When the light shifts to a pale, bruised violet at dusk, the entire grid of La Vina seems to hold its breath, waiting for the cooling relief of the night.

Economic life in La Vina remains tied to the cycles of the soil, a legacy that has dictated the rhythm of the workdays since the first irrigation lines were laid. The town functions as a collection point for the surrounding harvests, where the scent of turned earth and ripening fruit clings to the air long after the sun descends. While Madera Lake lies eleven miles to the north, its presence is felt more as a theoretical promise of water than a daily destination, underscoring the arid reality of the local climate. Time here moves with a deliberate, heavy gravity, stripped of the frantic pace found in more populous centers. The people of La Vina navigate their days amidst the quiet strength of the fields, finding a singular, stark beauty in the way the shadows lengthen across the rows as the evening settles over the valley.

About This La Vina Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of La Vina, California. Coordinates: 36.880502, -120.11044. 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 La Vina includes the ZIP code (93637), telephone area code (760), county seat of Madera County (Madera), and school district assignment (Madera 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.
