How to Use This Coral, Illinois Map

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

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 Coral, Illinois

Coral is a locality in McHenry County, Illinois, United States. It is a small community with a population of 16. The population density is 162.6 people per km². Coral is located at 42.2172°N, 88.5645°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 60152.

Coral emerges from the flat, expansive horizon of the Illinois landscape as a quiet intersection of open fields and dense, ancient timber. It lies 7.8 miles west-northwest of Huntley, IL (from Huntley, IL: bearing 296°T), and is situated 9.0 miles southwest of Woodstock. The terrain around Coral is defined by the deliberate, patient work of glaciers, leaving behind a subtle topography that rises and falls with the grace of a slow breath. To the immediate north, Coral Woods 2 offers a sanctuary of oak and hickory, where the air holds the damp, cool scent of decaying leaves and deep, shaded loam. Only two miles distant, the South Branch Kishwaukee River carves a narrow, winding path through the soil, its waters moving with a steady, unhurried purpose that mirrors the temperament of the surrounding plains. During the late autumn, the light here turns a pale, translucent gold, catching the dried stalks of harvest-spent fields and casting long, thin shadows that stretch toward the horizon.

Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Coral, a legacy of the fertile, dark earth that drew early settlers to clear the prairie and establish a foothold in the midwestern interior. The economy reflects a long-standing commitment to the land, where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the pace of daily life, shifting from the frantic machinery of spring planting to the hushed, solitary work of winter maintenance. While the memory of the frontier has faded into the modern grid, the presence of Coral Woods 2 serves as a reminder of the original wildness that once blanketed this region before the plow arrived. Travelers passing through may notice the absence of grand monuments, yet there is a distinct, quiet dignity in the way the local infrastructure accommodates the natural flow of the South Branch Kishwaukee River and the surrounding woodlands. Life in Coral persists with a steady, grounded reliability, anchored by the simple, enduring fact of the seasons turning above the soil.

About This Coral Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Coral, Illinois. Coordinates: 42.217245, -88.564536. 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 Coral includes the ZIP code (60152), telephone area code (312, 773), county seat of McHenry County (Woodstock), and school district assignment (Marengo-Union Elementary Consolidated District 165).

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.
