Explore Albion, Indiana, 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 Albion, Indiana. 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 Indiana 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 Albion.
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.

Albion emerges from a landscape of flat, fertile fields and dense woodlots where the horizon remains wide and unencumbered. It lies 17.1 miles south-southeast of Seymour, IN (from Seymour, IN: bearing 151°T), and is situated 4.5 miles north-northeast of Scottsburg. Hutto Creek carves a winding, deliberate path through the earth nearby, feeding the damp, rich soil that sustains the surrounding agricultural patchwork. The air here holds a particular clarity at dusk, turning the sky a muted, bruised violet that deepens until the silhouettes of distant trees vanish into the dark. Two miles away, the quiet waters of Howard Lake mirror this transition, offering a stillness that defines the regional character more than any manufactured landmark. The terrain is modest, lacking the dramatic rise of Vic Swaim Hill, which remains a distant, subtle suggestion on the periphery of the view.
Albion maintains a pace dictated by the seasonal cycle of planting and harvest, a rhythm that has anchored the local economy for generations. The presence of Hardy Lake LWCF provides a sanctuary for the local flora and fauna, preserving a fragment of the wild within the managed grid of the plains. History in Albion is written in the modest brickwork of its architecture and the enduring utility of its roads, which connect the small, functional centers of labor and commerce. Whether navigating the path toward the deeper woodland reaches near Clark State Forest or simply observing the shift in light across the fields of Buzz Gully, one finds a place that prefers the quiet satisfaction of steady, honest work over the clamor of wider, more frantic horizons.

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.
