How to Use This Fulton, Michigan Map

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

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 Fulton, Michigan

Fulton is a locality in Kalamazoo County, Michigan, United States. It is a small community with a population of 182. The population density is 145.5 people per km². Fulton is located at 47.2992°N, 88.3608°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. ZIP codes: 49052, 49950.

Fulton occupies a quiet expanse of the Michigan landscape where the horizon stretches flat and wide, defined by the steady, unyielding presence of fertile soil and open sky. It lies 13.1 miles east-southeast of Portage, MI (from Portage, MI: bearing 117°T), and is situated 9.2 miles east of Vicksburg. The earth here holds a low, deliberate posture, relieved only by the gentle curvature of the land that leads toward the banks of Little Portage Creek, a waterway that cuts a thin, silver vein through the surrounding fields. During the autumn months, the light takes on a sharp, brittle clarity, casting long shadows that emphasize the vastness of the plains as they transition toward the denser, shadowed thickets of the Fulton State Game Area. Far to the south, the vague silhouette of Colon Mountain rises as a muted suggestion against the clouds, while the nearby waters of Marl Lake remain still, reflecting the changing temperaments of a sky that feels immense and heavy with the coming winter.

Fulton emerged from the necessity of the land, its rhythm dictated by the cycles of agriculture and the patient labor of those who turned the stubborn, nutrient-rich earth into a livelihood. The local economy persists as a quiet dialogue between the modern demands of commerce and the enduring heritage of the region, where the influence of industry remains anchored to the patterns of the harvest and the movement of goods across the inland plains. Life in Fulton moves with a measured, internal gravity, far removed from the frantic pace of larger hubs, yet linked to the broader regional history by the legacy of small-scale production and the communal resilience found in rural outposts. Even as the modern world encroaches, the area retains a solitary, contemplative character, where the distant, managed silence of the W K Kellogg Experimental Forest serves as a reminder of the quiet, deliberate pace that defines the daily experience of the people here.

About This Fulton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fulton, Michigan. Coordinates: 47.299161, -88.360809. 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 Fulton includes the ZIP code (49052, 49950), telephone area code (269, 906), county seat of Kalamazoo County (Kalamazoo), and school district assignment (Calumet Public Schools).

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.
