How to Use This Cecilia, Louisiana Map

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

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 Cecilia, Louisiana

Cecilia is a locality in St. Martin Parish, Louisiana, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,807. The population density is 329.4 people per km². Cecilia is located at 30.3371°N, 91.8532°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 70512, 70521.

Cecilia sits amidst a verdant expanse of flat, alluvial plains where the heavy, humid air seems to slow the very passage of time. It lies 11.8 miles east of Carencro, LA (from Carencro, LA: bearing 83°T), and is situated 5.2 miles north-northeast of Breaux Bridge. The Bayou Teche carves a serpentine path through the landscape, its dark, sluggish waters reflecting the moss-draped branches of cypress trees that stand like silent sentinels along the banks. Only four miles away, the quiet surface of Lake Bigeux catches the amber light of the setting sun, while the distant, subtle depressions of the Cypremort Crevasse hint at the ancient, shifting geology of the region. The light here in the late afternoon possesses a peculiar, syrupy quality, turning the horizon into a blurred wash of gold and deep green that swallows the edges of the fields.

Cecilia maintains a steady, agrarian pulse dictated by the seasonal cycles of sugarcane and rice, crops that have long defined the labor and livelihood of those who work the black, fertile earth. The community carries the weight of a layered history, where the fusion of Cajun and Creole traditions manifests in the rhythmic cadence of local speech and the enduring influence of zydeco music that drifts from porches on warm evenings. Residents often seek the shaded quietude of Parc Hardy Park, a four-mile retreat from the steady hum of the local economy. In Cecilia, life remains tethered to the land, an unpretentious existence where the intensity of the summer heat demands a deliberate, measured pace of work and conversation.

About This Cecilia Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cecilia, Louisiana. Coordinates: 30.337142, -91.853172. 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 Cecilia includes the ZIP code (70512, 70521), telephone area code (985), county seat of St. Martin Parish, and school district assignment (St. Martin Parish 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.
