How to Use This Raub, Indiana Map

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

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.

About Raub, Indiana

Raub is a locality in Benton County, Indiana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 53. The population density is 235.2 people per km². Raub is located at 40.7300°N, 87.4917°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Indiana/Indianapolis) timezone. ZIP code: 47942.

Raub occupies a flat expanse of fertile prairie where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered under a heavy, expansive sky. It lies 6.1 miles west-southwest of Newton, IN (from Newton, IN: bearing 245°T), and is situated 13.2 miles east-southeast of Watseka. The Bowton Ditch channels the seasonal rains through the black soil, a utilitarian vein that cuts through the grid of fields with persistent, quiet purpose. To the east, the land remains largely undisturbed, save for the subtle rise of the terrain that hints at the distant elevation of Mount Nebo. The light here at dusk possesses a singular clarity, turning the fields to a deep, burnished copper that seems to hold the day’s warmth long after the sun has slipped below the western edge of the plains. One mile away, the Raub Gamebird Habitat Area offers a quiet sanctuary, where the grasses sway in rhythmic unison, undisturbed by the mechanical hum of the modern world.

Raub emerged from the labor of those who cleared the stubborn brush to make way for the endless rows of corn and soy that define the regional economy. The rhythm of life follows the slow turning of the seasons, dictated by the planting and the harvest rather than the frantic pace of the distant urban centers. While the quietude of the surrounding landscape suggests a place apart from time, the proximity of Eastburn Hollow serves as a reminder of the geological shifts that shaped this reach of the state. Travelers passing through may notice the absence of grand monuments, finding instead a spare, honest character forged in the small-scale commerce of a rural outpost. Life in Raub maintains a steady, deliberate cadence, mirrored by the migration of local wildlife and the way the shadows lengthen across the gravel roads as evening settles over the woodlot mosaic.

About This Raub Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Raub, Indiana. Coordinates: 40.730037, -87.491692. 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 Raub includes the ZIP code (47942), telephone area code (765), county seat of Benton County (Fowler), and school district assignment (South Newton 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.
