How to Use This Edgington, Illinois Map

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

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.

Edgington occupies a quiet expanse of the Midwestern interior, where the horizon stretches flat and wide, broken only by the silhouettes of silos and the occasional stand of hardwood timber. It lies 12.8 miles southwest of Rock Island, IL (from Rock Island, IL: bearing 229°T), and is situated 13.5 miles southwest of Davenport. Big Branch carves a narrow, winding path through the soil just one mile away, its presence marked by a dense thicket of green that contrasts with the surrounding agricultural austerity. To the west, the landscape rises into the subtle, weathered elevations of Army Ridge Bluffs, while the stillness of Hidden Lake rests only two miles from the center of the grid. As the light fades at dusk, the prairie air turns crisp, carrying the scent of drying stalks and damp earth, casting the fields in a deep, melancholic gold that seems to hold the weight of the coming winter.

Agriculture defines the economic pulse of Edgington, where the rhythm of the seasons dictates the flow of commerce and the daily labor of its inhabitants. Long before modern machinery, the land was claimed by those who recognized the fertility of the dark, heavy soil, establishing a legacy that remains tied to the cultivation of grain and the management of regional livestock. Residents often find their way to the Ms Rv Pools 11-22 Recreation Area, a four-mile journey that offers a rare, deliberate pause from the demands of the harvest. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain dips toward Heck Hollow six miles distant, a reminder of the slow, geological persistence that shaped this corner of the state. Edgington persists as a place of deliberate endurance, where the simple architecture of grain elevators and farmhouse porches tells the story of a culture built on the quiet, repetitive work of the land.
