Explore Westwood, 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 Westwood, 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 Westwood.
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.

Westwood occupies a quiet stretch of Indiana terrain defined by the patient, silt-heavy meanderings of the East Fork White Lick Creek. It lies 3.3 miles west-southwest of Speedway, IN (from Speedway, IN: bearing 251°T), and is situated 9.0 miles west of Indianapolis. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek’s banks, the landscape opens into a mosaic of woodlots and flat, productive soil, where the light at dusk turns the haze above the fields a dusty, bruised violet. To the west, the horizon remains stubbornly level, though the distant suggestion of Long Ridge occasionally interrupts the skyline like a forgotten thought. Residents often seek the cooling margins of Eagle Creek Reservoir, a three-mile journey that feels like a migration toward a deeper, more settled stillness, while Robey Park offers a compact, manicured respite for those who prefer their nature strictly defined by the town’s own measured boundaries.
Westwood reflects the enduring cadence of a region built upon the persistent labor of the plow and the steady, unpretentious commerce of the interior plains. The economy here remains tethered to the rhythm of the seasons, a vestige of an era when the land dictated the clock and the calendar with equal authority. While Sparrow Hollow rests six miles away as a reminder of the more rugged, shadowed geological history of the state, the life of Westwood stays rooted in the brick-and-mortar reality of local enterprise and the quiet persistence of its neighborhoods. There is a distinct, rhythmic hum to the daily passage of time here, an atmosphere that owes little to the outside world, favoring instead the simple, reliable patterns of a life lived in accordance with the soil and the sky.

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.
