How to Use This Robinson Mill, California Map

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

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 Robinson Mill, California

Robinson Mill is a locality in Butte County, California, United States. It is a small community with a population of 89. The population density is 26.1 people per km². Robinson Mill is located at 39.4857°N, 121.3202°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 95966.

Robinson Mill occupies a rugged expanse of terrain where the landscape tilts toward the cooling influence of the nearby Plumas National Forest. It lies 12.7 miles east of Oroville, CA (from Oroville, CA: bearing 99°T), and is situated 8.2 miles east-southeast of Oroville East. Natchez Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the brush, its flow defining the low-lying veins of the basin as it edges toward the broader expanse of Lake Oroville. The air here holds a particular, dry clarity, especially when the golden light of late afternoon catches the tall grasses that transition into the shadows of Sommey Flat. Far to the east, the distant, jagged silhouette of the Sierra Nevada marks the horizon, a constant reminder of the high country that looms beyond these quieter, lower ridges.

Robinson Mill carries the quiet weight of its namesake industry, a legacy of timber and extraction that once dictated the pulse of the local economy. While the heavy machinery of the past has largely ceded ground to the slow reclamation of the woods, the rhythm of life remains tethered to the land’s natural cycles. The surrounding woods provide a sanctuary for those who value the solitude of the brush, where the seasonal shift from vibrant spring green to the brittle, tinder-dry ochre of summer dictates the pace of the year. It is a place where the stillness feels deliberate, anchored by the persistent presence of the creek and the enduring, unhurried character of the valley floor.

About This Robinson Mill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Robinson Mill, California. Coordinates: 39.4857, -121.3202. 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 Robinson Mill includes the ZIP code (95966), telephone area code (530), county seat of Butte County (Oroville), and school district assignment (Oroville City Elementary 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.
