How to Use This Lockridge, Iowa Map

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

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.

Lockridge emerges from the flat, expansive horizon as a collection of modest rooftops framed by the vast, open sky of the Midwest. It lies 33.9 miles northwest of Fort Madison, IA (from Fort Madison, IA: bearing 318°T), and is situated 11.2 miles east of Fairfield. The landscape around Lockridge is defined by the rigorous geometry of tilled fields, where the dark, fertile soil yields orderly rows of corn and soybeans that stretch until they meet the low-slung clouds. Just a mile away, the quiet waters of Brush Creek trace a slow, meandering path through the earth, cutting a narrow ribbon of riparian growth that softens the sharp edges of the surrounding farmland. The light here at dusk holds a particular clarity, turning the dusty air into a pale, bruised gold that lingers over the fields, emphasizing the immense, quiet scale of the plains.

History in this region is marked by the steady, persistent labor of those who broke the prairie sod and established the foundations of the local economy, which remains tethered to the rhythmic cycles of the harvest. Families have worked these acres for generations, maintaining a quiet, unshowy civility that reflects the deep, rooted character of the local population. Beyond the immediate grid of the streets, the terrain offers subtle variations in elevation, eventually leading toward the preserved sanctuary of Woodthrush Woods State Preserve, where the original, untamed character of the land is shielded from the plow. For those seeking the stillness of the water, Horse Shoe Lake sits a short distance away, providing a reflective surface that mirrors the changing seasons and the slow, deliberate pace of daily life in this corner of the state.

About This Lockridge Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lockridge, Iowa. Coordinates: 40.994746, -91.748223. 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 Lockridge includes the ZIP code (52635), telephone area code (712), county seat of Jefferson County (Fairfield), and school district assignment (Fairfield 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.
