How to Use This Lakeview, California Map

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

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 Lakeview, California

Lakeview is a locality in Nevada County, California, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,977. The population density is 234.1 people per km². Lakeview is located at 33.8285°N, 117.1233°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP codes: 96161, 93313, 92040.

Lakeview emerges from the high, rugged terrain where the persistent flow of Donner Creek carves a path through the earth, defining the very pulse of the landscape. It lies 4.3 miles west of Truckee, CA (from Truckee, CA: bearing 270°T), and is situated 9.2 miles north of Squaw Valley. This expanse is defined by the vast, protected reaches of Tahoe National Forest, which envelopes the perimeter in a dense, quiet stillness that shifts with the turning of the seasons. Beyond the immediate banks of Donner Lake, the ground rises toward Johnson Canyon, creating a topography of sharp contrasts where the air grows thin and crisp. The light here possesses a distinct, sharp clarity, illuminating the needles of the conifers and the exposed stone with a precision that makes every shadow appear carved and deliberate.

History in Lakeview remains tethered to the rugged demands of the wilderness and the labor required to sustain life in such a solitary, inland environment. The economy has long been shaped by the proximity to the Onion Creek Experimental Forest, an area that serves as a living laboratory for the study of natural growth and resource management. Residents often traverse the China Cove Trail, a path that offers a quiet perspective on the land’s enduring character, far removed from the more populous regions of the interior. Life proceeds with a measured, steady cadence, reflecting a deep-seated respect for the isolation of the Sierra Nevada, which looms as a jagged, distant silhouette on the horizon, anchoring the world in place.

About This Lakeview Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lakeview, California. Coordinates: 33.828465, -117.123334. 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 Lakeview includes the ZIP code (96161, 93313, 92040), telephone area code (714, 909), county seat of Nevada County (Nevada City), and school district assignment (Perris Union High School District (9-12)).

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.
