How to Use This Millbury, Massachusetts Map

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

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 Millbury, Massachusetts

Millbury is a locality in Worcester County, Massachusetts, United States. It has a population of 13,400. The population density is 680.0 people per km². Millbury is located at 42.1940°N, 71.7601°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 01527.

Millbury occupies a significant corridor within the Blackstone River valley, where the water flows with a persistent, steady force that once powered the early machines of the region. It lies 3.9 miles east of Auburn, MA (from Auburn, MA: bearing 91°T), and is situated 5.2 miles south-southeast of Worcester. The landscape surrounding Millbury is defined by a dense, inland topography that rises toward the distant High Rocks visible on the horizon. Howe Pond sits quietly at the center of the terrain, its surface often mirroring the shifting colors of the changing seasons. To the south, the expansive trees of Sutton State Forest provide a deep, cooling shade that defines the local atmosphere. In the distance, the geological curiosity of Purgatory Chasm serves as a reminder of the rugged, ancient forces that shaped this interior land.

Millbury evolved from an agrarian settlement into a hub of industrial innovation, driven by the reliable movement of the Blackstone River. The local economy grew through the strength of its mills, which harnessed the water to manufacture textiles and paper products for a growing nation. These industries defined the daily labor of residents for generations, leaving behind brick structures that still anchor the streetscapes today. The transition from heavy manufacturing to a modern service-based economy has altered the pace of life, though the industrious spirit of the early settlers remains a lingering influence. Nearby, Sutton Falls once provided the natural kinetic energy that encouraged such rapid development in this specific, landlocked territory.

Millbury maintains a distinct cultural character that is shaped by its long history of labor and the quiet, persistent rhythm of life away from the bustle of larger urban centers. Residents often gather at Windle Field, a space that serves as a common ground for local recreation and community connection. The town’s identity is marked by a pragmatic resilience, reflecting the character of those who built their lives along the banks of the Blackstone River. While many have passed through, the area is perhaps best known as the birthplace of the influential American industrialist Asa Waters, whose legacy is preserved in the elegant architecture he commissioned. Community life remains centered on these local landmarks, where the air feels heavy with the weight of tradition and the quiet promise of the coming evening.

About This Millbury Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Millbury, Massachusetts. Coordinates: 42.193984, -71.76007. 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 Millbury includes the ZIP code (01527), telephone area code (339, 351, 413, 508, 617, 774, 781, 857, 978), county seat of Worcester County (Worcester), and school district assignment.

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.
