Explore Bartonville, Illinois, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Bartonville, Illinois. 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 Illinois 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 Bartonville.
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.

Bartonville emerges from the flat, fertile expanse of the Illinois landscape where the steady current of Kickapoo Creek carves a path through the earth. It lies 3.9 miles west-southwest of East Peoria, IL (from East Peoria, IL: bearing 254°T), and is situated 4.5 miles southwest of Peoria. This inland terrain stretches far from any salt air, defined instead by the quiet persistence of Midwestern plains and the soft shadows cast by distant Hoxie Ridge upon the horizon. Travelers passing through Bartonville might notice how the afternoon light catches the tall grasses, turning the fields into a sea of muted gold and deep amber. Only four miles away, the waters of Worley Lake offer a mirror to the sky, while the proximity of Crow Hollow adds a subtle depth to the surrounding topography. The air here carries the scent of rich soil and distant, ripening crops, grounding the spirit in the rhythm of the changing seasons.
Bartonville maintains a history tethered to the industrious spirit of the nineteenth century, when coal mining became the lifeblood of the local economy. Shafts once cut deep into the ground, drawing resources that powered the growth of the surrounding region and shaped the town’s early identity. As the industrial tides turned, the workforce transitioned toward modern manufacturing and service sectors that continue to anchor the community today. The legacy of those early laborers remains visible in the sturdy, brick-built architecture that persists through the changing decades. While the landscape has shifted from extraction to more varied commercial pursuits, Bartonville retains a quiet resilience that mirrors the persistence of its founding families. This economic evolution has kept the local character steady, favoring practical growth over the fleeting trends of more urbanized centers.
Bartonville fosters a community spirit that finds its expression in local gatherings and the shared preservation of regional heritage. Residents often congregate near Clara A Lauthervach Park, where the open space allows for a respite from the daily pace of work and commerce. The cultural identity of Bartonville is marked by a deep appreciation for the land, visible in the way the town celebrates the quiet beauty of the surrounding plains and forests like the distant Sand Ridge State Forest. While no celebrities of global renown claim this specific soil as their birthright, the people themselves carry a quiet, unassuming dignity that defines the local way of life. Evening in Bartonville brings a cooling of the air that settles over the porches and streets, signaling a time for reflection as the stars begin to emerge above the prairie. It is a place where the stillness of the environment dictates the tempo of the day, allowing for a life lived with intentional focus.

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.
