How to Use This Sunnyside, California Map

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

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 Sunnyside, California

Sunnyside is a locality in Tehama County, California, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,627. The population density is 933.9 people per km². Sunnyside is located at 36.7294°N, 119.6945°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP codes: 96145, 93727.

Sunnyside occupies a landscape defined by the rhythmic pulse of Buttermilk Creek, which carves a persistent path through the dry, golden-grassed plains. It lies 40.5 miles southwest of Red Bluff, CA (from Red Bluff, CA: bearing 235°T), and is situated 57.1 miles south-southwest of Redding. The air here holds a clarity that sharpens the edges of the oak savanna, where the light at dusk turns the earth a deep, burnished copper before the long shadows of the distant Cascade Range settle against the horizon. To the west, the rugged boundaries of Mendocino National Forest offer a wild, untamed counterpoint to the orderly, sun-bleached fields, while the nearby Eury Glade provides a shallow, grassy basin that catches the afternoon heat. During the height of the summer, the stillness is broken only by the dry rustle of wind through brush, a sound that echoes the quiet, measured pace of life that defines the daily experience of Sunnyside.

Economic life in Sunnyside remains tethered to the land, drawing sustenance from the seasonal cycles that dictate the rhythms of the surrounding woodland and the sparse, hardy agriculture of the interior. Generations have looked toward the timbered slopes of Mendocino National Forest for both resource and recreation, maintaining a connection to the geography that persists even as the modern world encroaches from the periphery. Those who seek to traverse the terrain often follow the Buttermilk Trail, a narrow artery that traces the land’s natural contours and offers a vantage point over the parched, resilient topography. While Dry Lake Reservoir waits seventeen miles away as a testament to the necessity of water in this arid climate, the residents of Sunnyside continue to cultivate a culture of endurance, marked by a sturdy independence that mirror the stark, unadorned beauty of the inland plains.

About This Sunnyside Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sunnyside, California. Coordinates: 36.729419, -119.694505. 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 Sunnyside includes the ZIP code (96145, 93727), telephone area code (760), county seat of Tehama County (Red Bluff), and school district assignment (Fresno 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.
