Explore Bingham, Maine, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Bingham, Maine. 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 Maine 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 Bingham.
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.

Bingham exists where the steady, dark flow of the Austin Stream carves a purposeful path through the dense timberlands of the interior. It lies 37.1 miles north-northwest of Waterville, ME (from Waterville, ME: bearing 341°T), and is situated 18.0 miles north of Madison. The landscape is defined by the heavy presence of spruce and fir, which stand in quiet ranks against the sky, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Longfellow Mountains marks the horizon like a jagged promise of wilder country. Only a mile away, the surface of Temple Pond catches the low, slanted light of the afternoon, holding the reflection of the woods in a stillness that seems to suspend time itself. The air here holds a crisp, earthen weight, carrying the scent of pine needles and damp stone, a reminder that the deep woods are never far from the porch steps or the roadside. Not far from the village center, the sudden, rhythmic rush of Houston Brook Falls provides a constant, percussive backdrop to the stillness, a small but fierce testimony to the power of the high ground.
Bingham has long been sustained by the industry of the forest, with generations of residents finding their livelihood in the harvesting and processing of wood products that flow from the surrounding valleys. The rhythm of the day is measured by the steady hum of work and the changing seasons, moving from the muddy thaw of spring to the stark, biting silence of winter. Beyond the immediate reach of the village, the landscape opens toward the broader expanse of Weeks Basin, where the topography softens, and the legacy of earlier settlers remains etched into the cleared fields and modest, sturdy dwellings. Nature remains an active neighbor; the proximity to the Fahi Pond Wildlife Management Area ensures that the movement of game and the quiet patterns of the forest continue to influence the tempo of local life. Here, the economy and the environment are inextricably linked, forming a community that observes the slow, deliberate pace of the interior, far removed from the clamor of the world beyond the hills.

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.
