How to Use This Sleepy Hollow, Illinois Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sleepy Hollow, 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 Sleepy Hollow.
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.

ZIP codes: 60632, 62959, 60118.Sleepy Hollow emerges from the dense, verdant canopy of the Shawnee National Forest as a quiet testament to the enduring character of the inland landscape. It lies 9.0 miles south of Marion, IL (from Marion, IL: bearing 186°T), and is situated 17.1 miles east-southeast of Carbondale. Clifty Creek carves its path through the terrain, its waters reflecting the heavy, golden light that settles over the deep woods as the sun begins its slow descent toward the horizon. Ten miles distant, the silhouettes of Wise Ridge provide a jagged, silent contrast to the lush density of the surrounding timberland, while the nearby Lake of Egypt holds the stillness of the afternoon in its quiet, dark depths. The air here carries the scent of damp loam and pine needles, a heavy, grounded fragrance that lingers long after the shadows have lengthened across the forest floor.
Sleepy Hollow maintains a rhythm dictated by the cycles of the earth and the slow, steady persistence of its inhabitants who have long found purpose within these ancient boundaries. The economy remains tethered to the land and the stewardship of the protected wilderness, drawing those who seek a quiet existence away from the frantic pace of the distant urban grids. Life in Sleepy Hollow moves with the deliberate grace of the seasons, where the primary concerns are the maintenance of the homesteads and the preservation of the forest that defines its borders. Six miles away, the expanse of Happy Hollow offers a subtle variation in the topography, yet the spirit of the place remains anchored in the quiet, shadowed groves and the steady, unobserved life of the interior.

About This Sleepy Hollow Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sleepy Hollow, Illinois. Coordinates: 42.090287, -88.313712. 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 Sleepy Hollow includes the ZIP code (60632, 62959, 60118), telephone area code (618, 312, 773), county seat of Williamson County (Marion), and school district assignment (Community Unit School District 300).
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.
