How to Use This St. David, Illinois Map

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

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.

St. David anchors itself upon the quiet expanse of the Illinois prairie, where the horizon stretches flat and wide under a sky that feels immense in its openness. It lies 4.5 miles south of Canton, IL (from Canton, IL: bearing 189°T), and is situated 13.4 miles north of Havana. Big Creek carves a slow, deliberate path through the landscape, its waters reflecting the muted colors of the fields and the seasonal shift from vibrant green to a brittle, dusty gold. To the west, the faint, hazy silhouette of Hoxie Ridge provides a jagged counterpoint to the relentless level of the plains, while the nearby Evelen Lake offers a stillness that deepens as the sun dips low. The air here holds the scent of turned earth and drying stalks, a heavy, honest fragrance that marks the passage of the harvest.

St. David carries the weight of a coal-mining heritage in its bones, a history etched into the very dirt that once yielded the fuel for a growing nation. The local economy, having transitioned from the clamor of the pits to the quiet productivity of modern agriculture, maintains a steady, unassuming pace that favors persistence over spectacle. Residents often look toward the Honkers Corner Rod and Gun for a respite in the outdoors, or venture further afield to the trails of Sand Ridge State Forest when the woods turn to rust and amber. Life in St. David is defined by the rhythm of the seasons and the enduring character of those who remain, finding a distinct beauty in the way the light catches the silos at dusk or the simple, unadorned utility of the prairie landscape.

About This St. David Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of St. David, Illinois. Coordinates: 40.493373, -90.048728. 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 St. David includes the ZIP code (61563), telephone area code (815), county seat of Fulton County (Lewistown), and school district assignment (Lewistown Community Unit School District 97).

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.
