How to Use This Williston, Florida Map

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

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 Williston, Florida

Williston is a locality in Levy County, Florida, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,976. The population density is 168.3 people per km². Williston is located at 29.3875°N, 82.4468°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Williston is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 32696.

Williston emerges from the flat, porous limestone of the Florida peninsula, an inland expanse defined by heavy subtropical humidity and the persistent green of palmetto scrub. It lies 19.7 miles south-southwest of Gainesville, FL (from Gainesville, FL: bearing 202°T), and is situated 6.6 miles east-northeast of Williston Highlands. The horizon here is vast and low, interrupted only by the distant rise of Spring Hill or the occasional dense cluster of cypress trees that track the moisture through the soil. Sunlight in Williston possesses a thick, amber quality, particularly in the late afternoon when it catches the dust kicked up from limestone roads and illuminates the open plains of Horse Prairie. Within the town limits, Williston Heritage Park / Linear Park provides a quiet corridor of shade, its pathways serving as a reminder of the quiet, deliberate pace of life that defines the landscape.

Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Williston, where the economy is rooted in the deep, fertile soil that has supported farming and livestock for generations. The legacy of these rural roots is visible in the working pastures and the steady, unadorned commerce that characterizes the main streets. While the nearest flowing water, Magee Branch, remains eleven miles distant and Sawgrass Lake sits seven miles away, the character of the place is shaped by the land’s own thirst and the limestone sinkholes that dot the surrounding woods. Williston maintains a distinctive resilience, a quiet persistence that favors the local industry and the specific, humid rhythm of a place that remains firmly detached from the world of the coast.

About This Williston Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Williston, Florida. Coordinates: 29.38747, -82.446771. 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 Williston includes the ZIP code (32696), telephone area code (904), county seat of Levy County (Bronson), and school district assignment (Levy County 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.
