How to Use This Sutter, California Map

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

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 Sutter, California

Sutter is a locality in Sutter County, California, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,997. The population density is 382.5 people per km². Sutter is located at 39.1599°N, 121.7527°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 95982.

Sutter rises from the flat, agricultural expanse of the valley floor like an island of earth amidst a sea of orchards and row crops. It lies 7.4 miles west of Yuba City, CA (from Yuba City, CA: bearing 281°T), and is situated 8.7 miles west of Marysville. The horizon remains vast and unobstructed, save for the distant, hazy silhouette of the Coast Ranges that mark the far western boundary of the basin. Near the edge of the community, the Wadsworth Canal cuts a precise, utilitarian line through the soil, directing water toward the fertile fields that define the regional landscape. Only three miles away, the rugged topography of Kinch Canyon provides a sharp contrast to the level plains, while the nearby Sutter Bypass Wildlife Area preserves a quiet expanse of habitat where the air at dusk often carries a stillness that settles deep into the dry, sun-warmed grass.

Sutter preserves a character rooted in the rhythms of harvest and the slow, deliberate work of the land. Economic life here remains tethered to the productivity of the surrounding acreage, where the cycle of planting and picking dictates the pace of the day. While the region is inland and removed from the coast, the quality of light during the summer months is particularly intense, casting a pale, golden glow over the orchards that stretch toward the horizon. Though the distant peaks of the Coast Ranges serve as a constant, silent marker of the geography, the focus of daily existence stays fixed on the local soil and the quiet, industrious nature of those who tend it. Even as the modern world moves past on nearby thoroughfares, the atmosphere within Sutter persists as a steady, grounded reflection of its agricultural heritage.

About This Sutter Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sutter, California. Coordinates: 39.159892, -121.752748. 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 Sutter includes the ZIP code (95982), telephone area code (530), county seat of Sutter County (Yuba City), and school district assignment (Brittan 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.
