How to Use This Norway, Kansas Map

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

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 Norway, Kansas

Norway is a locality in Republic County, Kansas, United States. It is a small community with a population of 17. The population density is 2.9 people per km². Norway is located at 39.6961°N, 97.7739°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 66961, 66966.

Norway emerges from the vast, golden expanse of the Kansas plains as a quiet intersection of earth and sky where the horizon stretches thin and taut. It lies 59.8 miles north of Salina, KS (from Salina, KS: bearing 352°T), and is situated 10.5 miles northwest of Concordia. The wind moves through the tallgrass with a persistent, dry friction, shaping the terrain into subtle swells that catch the amber light of late afternoon. Only a mile away, the Republican River carves a deliberate path through the landscape, its banks lined with the silver-limbed cottonwoods that serve as the primary sentinels of this flat country. Beyond the immediate fields, the far-off silhouette of Twin Mounds interrupts the flatness of the western vista, a faint reminder of the geological depth beneath the soil.

Norway maintains a rhythm tethered to the cycles of the agricultural calendar, where the prosperity of the local economy rises and falls with the wheat harvest. The memory of the land’s struggle against the elements remains a silent undercurrent in the daily labor of the people, who have learned to cultivate these fields with a stoic, disciplined patience. Residents often look toward the Jamestown Wildlife Area, seven miles distant, to witness the seasonal migration of birds that find sanctuary in the protected marshes. Life here is defined by the expansive, open air and the occasional excursion toward Sportsmans Lake, providing a rare stillness in a region where the work of the day is measured by the steady, unrelenting movement of the sun across the prairie.

About This Norway Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Norway, Kansas. Coordinates: 39.696117, -97.773932. 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 Norway includes the ZIP code (66961, 66966), telephone area code (913), county seat of Republic County (Belleville), and school district assignment (Pike Valley Unified School District 426).

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.
