Explore Butlerville, 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 Butlerville, 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 Butlerville.
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.

Butlerville emerges from the landscape as a quiet arrangement of woodlots and open fields, defined by the persistent, shallow course of Pleasant Run as it cuts through the local clay. It lies 4.4 miles west-southwest of Jackson, IN (from Jackson, IN: bearing 241°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east-northeast of Jennings. The water moves with a modest, sluggish deliberation, carving a path toward a wider world while the nearby Brush Creek Reservoir holds the horizon in a stillness broken only by the occasional heron. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the land rises into a patchwork of forest and clearing, where the heavy, golden light of late afternoon settles against the timber to emphasize the deep, quiet isolation of the interior. To the west, the distant outline of Bates Ridge provides a faint, serrated edge to the sky, reminding the observer that the terrain here is part of a larger, older geological narrative that predates the fences and the roads.
Butlerville carries the weight of a settlement founded on the necessity of the rail and the soil, maintaining a pace that favors the deliberate over the hurried. The economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the surrounding earth, with the proximity of Selmier State Forest serving as a reminder of the dense, hardwoods that once dictated the lives of the early settlers. Residents often look toward the Brush Creek Fish And Wildlife Area for a respite from the mechanical hum of modern industry, finding in its managed wetlands a functional beauty that balances human utility with the needs of the land. There is a particular, enduring character in the architecture of the older buildings here, a sturdy simplicity that mirrors the endurance of those who have stayed to work the fields or commute through the gray, mist-heavy mornings of the changing seasons.

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.
