How to Use This Manchester, Kansas Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Manchester, 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 Manchester.
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.

About Manchester, Kansas
Manchester is a locality in Dickinson County, Kansas, United States. It is a small community with a population of 47. The population density is 113.4 people per km². Manchester is located at 39.0947°N, 97.3247°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Manchester is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 67410.Manchester occupies a quiet expanse of the Kansas plains where the horizon stretches flat and wide, inviting the sky to claim an immense portion of the view. It lies 23.4 miles northeast of Salina, KS (from Salina, KS: bearing 41°T), and is situated 13.6 miles north-northwest of Abilene. Mud Creek cuts a thin, winding path through the soil nearby, its banks lined with the occasional stand of cottonwoods that shiver in the persistent prairie wind. The land here possesses a stark, unadorned honesty, defined by the seasonal shift from the pale, brittle gold of winter wheat to the deep, resilient green of summer forage. On clear days, the silhouette of Potato Hill rises faintly against the distant skyline, a solitary landmark that punctuates the vast, uninterrupted flatness of the surrounding terrain.
Manchester maintains a rhythm dictated by the cycles of agriculture and the slow, deliberate pace of rural life that has persisted for generations. The local economy remains tethered to the productivity of the surrounding fields, reflecting a history shaped by the endurance of those who first broke the sod of these high plains. While the pace of modern life accelerates elsewhere, the residents here look toward the quiet recreation found at Ottawa State Fishing Lake And Wildlife Area or the still waters of State Lake for a respite from the labor of the seasons. There is a particular clarity to the light as it fades over the fields at dusk, casting long, lean shadows across the earth and emphasizing the solitary, grounded presence of Manchester in the heart of the state.

About This Manchester Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Manchester, Kansas. Coordinates: 39.094719, -97.324746. 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 Manchester includes the ZIP code (67410), telephone area code (785), county seat of Dickinson County (Abilene), and school district assignment (Chapman Unified School District 473).
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.
