How to Use This Westfield, Iowa Map

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

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.

Westfield emerges from the vast, undulating expanse of the Iowa plains, where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered under a sky of pale, infinite blue. It lies 20.5 miles north-northwest of Sioux City, IA (from Sioux City, IA: bearing 329°T), and is situated 6.4 miles northeast of Elk Point. The landscape is defined by the steady, rhythmic persistence of Westfield Creek, which carves a modest path through the earth, drawing a thin line of green against the geometric precision of the surrounding fields. At the western edge, the land gathers into the soft, wind-blown rises of the Loess Hills, their slopes catching the late afternoon light and softening the harsh lines of the tilled soil. Only a short distance away, the quiet waters of Lake Nixon offer a reflective stillness, while the nearby Millsite Access provides a modest point of entry into the wilder, uncultivated patches of the prairie.

Agriculture remains the singular, enduring pulse of Westfield, where the cycles of corn and soybean planting dictate the pace of every season. The history of the region is written in the sturdy, pragmatic architecture of farmsteads and the quiet, industrious character of a population rooted in deep-soil tradition. Life in Westfield moves with a deliberate, unshowy civility, where the weight of the day is measured by the steady hum of machinery and the long shadows cast by grain elevators at dusk. It is a place where the air carries the dry, honest scent of earth and harvest, and where the inhabitants maintain a quiet, literate connection to a land that has been worked by generations with a stubborn, quiet grace.

About This Westfield Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Westfield, Iowa. Coordinates: 42.756206, -96.605527. 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 Westfield includes the ZIP code (50112, 51062), telephone area code (515, 563), county seat of Plymouth County (Le Mars), and school district assignment (Akron-Westfield 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.
