How to Use This Parkers Settlement, Indiana Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Parkers Settlement, 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 Parkers Settlement.
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.

It lies 5.8 miles south-southwest of Martin, IN (from Martin, IN: bearing 203°T), and is situated 7.8 miles west-southwest of Vanderburgh. Neu Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the earth nearby, its dark water reflecting the vast, shifting clouds that dominate the horizon. In the distance, the faint, bruised silhouette of Hickory Ridge anchors the western view, a reminder of the more rugged topography that lies miles away. Only a mile from the center, the stillness of Harold Mann Lake provides a mirror for the changing seasons, where the pale, amber light of autumn afternoons catches the surface in a brief, brilliant flicker.
Parkers Settlement carries the quiet gravity of a place built upon the labor of the land, defined by the seasonal pulse of harvest and the slow rotation of the local economy. The neighborhood remains tied to the cycles of the nearby woodlots and the reach of the surrounding fields, a rhythm punctuated by the occasional weekend gathering at Unknown Ball Park. History here is felt in the weight of the air and the endurance of the old, unadorned frame structures that stand against the wind. Life in Parkers Settlement proceeds without fanfare, guided by the steady, predictable turning of the year and the simple, persistent honesty of the Midwestern landscape.

About This Parkers Settlement Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Parkers Settlement, Indiana. Coordinates: 38.04671, -87.716133. 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 Parkers Settlement includes the ZIP code (47712), telephone area code (812), county seat of Posey County (Mount Vernon), and school district assignment (North Posey County Schools Metropolitan School District).
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.
