Explore Elk Grove Village, 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 Elk Grove Village, 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 Elk Grove Village.
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.

Elk Grove Village occupies a flat expanse of the Illinois prairie, defined by the quiet currents of Higgins Creek as it winds through the suburban landscape. It lies 2.8 miles north of Wood Dale, IL (from Wood Dale, IL: bearing 9°T), and is situated 6.1 miles east-southeast of Schaumburg. The nearby Busse Forest South provides a dense canopy of oaks and maples that break the horizon, while the shallow waters of South Pool offer a reflective silence just two miles from the bustling center. Beyond these natural pockets, the land stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Rogers Ridge, which anchors the western skyline. The nearby Elk Pasture serves as a reminder of the region’s agricultural roots, providing a wide-open basin where the light at dusk turns the tall grasses a deep, burnished gold. Sanders Park remains a vital sliver of green space for residents, offering a necessary pause in the rhythm of the surrounding plains.
Elk Grove Village emerged from the post-war expansion as a planned industrial powerhouse, transforming vast tracts of farmland into a massive, meticulously organized business park. This expansive industrial sector remains the engine of the local economy, drawing workers from across the region to its warehouses and high-tech manufacturing facilities. The history of the area is written in the steel and concrete of these sprawling campuses, which grew rapidly to support the needs of a changing Midwest. While the economy hums with the steady energy of production and logistics, the daily life of the residents remains grounded in the practical, industrious spirit of the original settlers. Modern commerce moves through these corridors with a predictable efficiency, ensuring that the legacy of growth continues to define the character of the workplace.
Elk Grove Village maintains a distinct cultural identity that balances the quietude of residential life with the formidable presence of its industrial neighbors. The community gathers for the annual Rotaryfest, an event that brings a festive, communal energy to the streets and celebrates the town's enduring spirit. Residents often find respite in the local library or the pathways that border the natural areas, where the air holds the cool, crisp scent of the inland plains. Among those who have called the area home, the actor Gary Sinise stands out as a notable figure whose professional success brought recognition to the region. The landmarks here are defined not by grand monuments, but by the functional, well-maintained spaces that serve the daily needs of those who live and work in Elk Grove Village.

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.
