How to Use This Buffalo, Indiana Map

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

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.

Buffalo is a locality in White County, Indiana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 619. The population density is 100.8 people per km². Buffalo is located at 40.8894°N, 86.7361°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Indiana/Indianapolis) timezone. ZIP codes: 47925, 47001, 47960.

Buffalo rests upon the quiet, flat expanses of the Midwestern plains, where the Tippecanoe River carves a slow, deliberate path through the landscape. It lies 15.7 miles south-southwest of Ripley, IN (from Ripley, IN: bearing 196°T), and is situated 9.5 miles north of Monticello. The horizon here is vast and unencumbered, defined by the steady geometry of cornfields and the occasional dense woodlot that breaks the monotony of the earth. At dusk, the light stretches thin and amber across the fields, casting long, stark shadows that seem to anchor the soil to the sky. While the ground remains largely level, the distant elevation of Bunker Hill serves as a faint, singular interruption to the otherwise unbroken reach of the horizon.

Buffalo maintains a steady, deliberate pace of life, tied closely to the rhythms of the agricultural seasons and the surrounding rural industries. The proximity to Lake Shafer and the Norway Dam Public Fishing Site brings a seasonal change in tone, as the quietude of the fields gives way to the hum of those seeking the water’s edge. History in these parts is not etched in stone monuments but is felt in the sturdy, utilitarian architecture of local outbuildings and the persistent patterns of the harvest. Families have worked this land for generations, creating a community where the day-to-day existence is measured by the steady flow of the river and the labor required to keep the surrounding acres productive.
