How to Use This Florence, Illinois Map

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

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.

Florence occupies a stretch of land where the Illinois River carves a quiet, deliberate path through the earth, defining the very contours of the horizon. It lies 21.6 miles west-southwest of Jacksonville, IL (from Jacksonville, IL: bearing 250°T), and is situated 10.4 miles east of Pittsfield. The landscape here is defined by the deep, fertile soil of the plains, where the light at dusk turns the tall grass and open fields into a vast expanse of muted gold and gray. Ferry Lake rests against the edge of the property, its surface often mirroring the stillness of the afternoon sky, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Tick Ridge provides a steady boundary to the west. A few miles away, the terrain dips into the sheltered, shadowed greenery of Napolean Hollow, where the air holds a cooler, damp scent of damp earth and thick timber.

Florence carries the steady, methodical rhythm of a place long shaped by the cycle of the harvest and the seasonal rise of the river. The local economy finds its roots in the surrounding agricultural lands, where the labor of the day follows the slow transition of the sun across the soybean and corn fields. Residents move with a quiet purpose, often passing toward the Ray Norbut State Fish and Wildlife Area, a expanse of protected wild space that preserves the natural character of the river bluffs. In Florence, the history of the region remains visible in the sturdy, unadorned architecture that stands against the wind, a quiet reminder of the generations who have worked this land and watched the river waters move steadily toward their distant destination.

About This Florence Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Florence, Illinois. Coordinates: 39.628417, -90.612775. 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 Florence includes the ZIP code (61032, 62363), telephone area code (847, 224, 217), county seat of Pike County (Pittsfield), and school district assignment (Pikeland Community Unit School District 10).

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.
