How to Use This Attica, Indiana Map

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

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.

Attica anchors itself firmly against the low, fertile swells of the Indiana plains, defined by the persistent, southward pull of the Wabash River. It lies 6.7 miles northeast of Fountain, IN (from Fountain, IN: bearing 42°T), and is situated 13.0 miles northeast of Covington. The landscape surrounding Attica unfolds in a quiet mosaic of woodlot and working farmland, where the moisture from the nearby Riley Lake often hangs in the morning air, clinging to the cornstalks until the sun burns it away. While the horizon remains largely level, the distant silhouette of the Devils Backbone serves as a far-off reminder of the rugged geology characterizing the wider region. Within the town limits, Mcdonald Park provides a singular green aperture, offering a place for the local pace to slow against the backdrop of the river’s steady, unyielding current.

History in Attica clings to the industrial legacy of the riverfront, where the echoes of brickyards and manufacturing once dictated the rhythm of the work week. The local economy has shifted from the soot-stained intensity of early production to a more tempered reliance on the surrounding agricultural fields and the transit routes that funnel through the valley. Those who walk the streets observe a quiet, utilitarian permanence in the architecture, a gravity earned through generations of laboring in the shadow of the Opossum Hollow basin. Life here persists with a measured, deliberate quality, as the residents of Attica organize their days around the changing light on the water and the seasonal turning of the crops, finding a modest beauty in the plain, honest geometry of the Midwest.

About This Attica Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Attica, Indiana. Coordinates: 40.294204, -87.248899. 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 Attica includes the ZIP code (47918), telephone area code (765), county seat of Fountain County (Covington), and school district assignment (Attica Consolidated School Corporation).

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.
