How to Use This Bennett, Iowa Map

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

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.

Bennett unfolds across a vast, horizontal expanse of Iowa, where the sky claims more territory than the earth itself. It lies 22.1 miles north of Muscatine, IA (from Muscatine, IA: bearing 9°T), and is situated 8.2 miles east-southeast of Tipton. Bennett Creek carves a subtle, winding path through this terrain, its banks offering a quiet sanctuary where the water reflects the shifting moods of the clouds. The landscape is defined by the rigorous geometry of agriculture, where the dark, fertile soil yields orderly rows of corn and soybeans that stretch until they blur into the horizon. Within the village limits, Bennett City Park provides a modest green anchor, its quiet benches and open lawns serving as a place for the day’s lingering light to settle, turning the tall grasses into shades of burnished copper and gold.

History in Bennett retains the echoes of the industrious settlers who arrived with the expansion of the rail lines, building a life upon the promise of the plains. The local economy remains tethered to the pulse of the seasons, dominated by the rhythmic demands of harvest and planting that dictate the tempo of the year. Beyond the immediate reach of the silos, the quiet presence of Cedar Lakes, four miles distant, offers a reflective stillness that mirrors the unshowy, literate civility of the region. Life here moves with a deliberate, grounded grace, shaped by a heritage that values the weight of a handshake and the steady, unsung labor required to keep the heart of a prairie crossroads beating.

About This Bennett Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Bennett, Iowa. Coordinates: 41.740302, -90.973763. 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 Bennett includes the ZIP code (52721), telephone area code (712), county seat of Cedar County (Tipton), and school district assignment (Bennett Community 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.
