How to Use This Westville, Indiana Map

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

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.

Westville occupies a quiet expanse of land where the horizon settles into a mosaic of fertile farmland and scattered woodlots. It lies 9.6 miles east-northeast of Valparaiso, IN (from Valparaiso, IN: bearing 60°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east-southeast of Chesterton.

The immediate terrain is defined by the gentle presence of Wright Arm, which meanders through the landscape just one mile away. Residents often look toward the distant silhouette of Mount Jackson, an elevation that marks the edge of the regional view. Prairie Meadow Park offers a local sanctuary for those seeking the stillness of the open plains. Beyond the immediate fields, the depression known as Hungry Hollow provides a subtle variation in the flat topography. The light at dusk here seems to linger, casting long, amber shadows across the fields that stretch toward the distant water of Round Lake.

Westville emerged from the labor of early settlers who recognized the agricultural potential of this productive soil. The local economy has historically relied on the rhythmic demands of farming, though modern industry has diversified the ways in which people earn their daily bread. Small-scale manufacturing and service trades now complement the fields that once served as the sole engine of regional growth. Trains and heavy machinery occasionally disrupt the silence, a reminder of the industrial corridors that define much of the surrounding state. Hard work remains the currency of the region, grounding the community in a tradition of self-reliance and steady progress.

Westville carries a cultural character shaped by the steady, unpretentious nature of inland life. Prairie Meadow Park frequently serves as the center for local gatherings, where neighbors share news under the expansive Midwestern sky. While the pace of life remains deliberate, the town maintains a strong connection to its roots through seasonal events that draw the community together. Academic life is represented by the presence of Purdue University Northwest, which provides an intellectual anchor for the surrounding region. Notable individuals who have walked these paths include the celebrated novelist Theodore Dreiser, whose writings often captured the complex spirit of the American heartland. Life here is measured not by grand gestures, but by the consistent care taken in tending to the land and the people who inhabit it.

About This Westville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Westville, Indiana. Coordinates: 41.54143, -86.900582. 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 Westville includes the ZIP code (46391), telephone area code (260), county seat of LaPorte County (La Porte), and school district assignment (New Durham Township 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.
