How to Use This Fairview, Kansas Map

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

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.

Fairview occupies a stretch of high-plains geography where the horizon asserts itself with a vast, unyielding clarity. It lies 37.5 miles west-northwest of Atchison, KS (from Atchison, KS: bearing 301°T), and is situated 5.7 miles southeast of Sabetha. The terrain unfolds in broad, sun-bleached undulations, punctuated by the persistent, rhythmic swaying of prairie grasses that bend under a sky of immense, pale depth. A mile to the west, Spring Creek carves a modest, serpentine path through the earth, its banks lined with the gnarled silhouettes of cottonwoods that offer the only significant shade against the relentless Kansas light. To the far west, the faint, jagged suggestion of Pigeon Ridge barely breaks the line of the sky, serving as a distant reminder of a more rugged world beyond these quiet fields. In the golden hour, the light catches the dust motes in the air, transforming the simple, flat expanse into a shimmering, amber-toned expanse that feels both ancient and remarkably still.

Fairview traces its roots to the steady, agrarian ambition of early settlers who recognized the fertility of this inland soil, establishing a life centered on the seasonal cycles of planting and harvest. The local economy remains tethered to these expansive wheat fields and the industrious pace of modern agriculture, which dictates the quiet, purposeful cadence of daily life. While the Lehman Recreational Complex provides a nearby space for shared community gatherings and the preservation of the surrounding landscape, the town itself maintains a pragmatic, understated character. Residents often look toward Sabetha City Lake, ten miles to the north, for a reprieve from the heat, yet the identity of Fairview remains firmly anchored to the earth beneath its feet. History here is not written in grand monuments but is instead found in the sturdy, weathered architecture of the local grain elevators and the enduring resilience of those who continue to cultivate the land.

About This Fairview Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fairview, Kansas. Coordinates: 39.841111, -95.728042. 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 Fairview includes the ZIP code (66425), telephone area code (913), county seat of Brown County (Hiawatha), and school district assignment (Hiawatha Unified School District 415).

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.
