How to Use This Epworth, Iowa Map

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

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.

Epworth asserts its presence across a vast, horizontal expanse of Iowa farmland where the sky claims more territory than the earth itself. It lies 14.2 miles west-southwest of Dubuque, IA (from Dubuque, IA: bearing 254°T), and is situated 4.2 miles west of Peosta. The landscape around Epworth unfolds in rhythmic swells of rich, dark soil, punctuated by the rhythmic green of soybean fields and the tall, rustling sentinels of summer corn. A mile away, the quiet passage of Hogans Branch cuts through the terrain, a slender artery of water that marks the subtle shifts in the topography. On clear afternoons, the distant, hazy silhouette of Balltown Ridge shadows the horizon, providing a stationary anchor to a land that otherwise seems to drift toward the edges of the world.

Generations of settlers established Epworth on the strength of this fertile ground, building a local economy that remains deeply tethered to the pulse of the harvest and the steady labor of the fields. The pace of life here is defined by the seasonal turning of the soil and a quiet, literate civility that persists in the way neighbors acknowledge one another on the street. Residents often seek the solace of the outdoors by traveling to the nearby Heritage Trail, where the remnants of old rail lines offer a path through the quiet woodlands. While the deeper, carved recesses of Swiss Valley lie miles to the west, Epworth maintains its own grounded character, far removed from the clamor of the wider world and content in its modest, productive solitude.

About This Epworth Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Epworth, Iowa. Coordinates: 42.445002, -90.932077. 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 Epworth includes the ZIP code (52045), telephone area code (712), county seat of Dubuque County (Dubuque), and school district assignment (Western Dubuque County 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.
