How to Use This Lyndon Township, Michigan Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lyndon Township, 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 Lyndon Township.
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 Lyndon Township, Michigan
Lyndon Township is a locality in Washtenaw County, Michigan, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,600. The population density is 35.0 people per km². Lyndon Township is located at 42.3788°N, 84.0802°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. ZIP code: 48118.Lyndon Township unfolds as a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of glacial earth, where the terrain rises and falls in long, rhythmic swells of moraine and kettle terrain. It lies 14.2 miles west-southwest of Hamburg Township, MI (from Hamburg Township, MI: bearing 248°T), and is situated 5.2 miles northwest of Chelsea. Within the expansive boundaries of the Pinckney Recreation Area, the land retains a wild, unmanicured character that dictates the pace of the surroundings. Clark Lake rests at the center of this topography, its surface often mirroring the heavy, slate-colored clouds that drift inland from the plains. To the west, the distant Sharon Short Hills provide a jagged, hazy silhouette against the horizon, anchoring the visual field, while the moisture of Portage Creek draws the eye toward the low-lying wetlands that carve through the woods three miles away.
Agriculture and a legacy of land stewardship have long shaped the identity of Lyndon Township, favoring a quiet independence over rapid industrial expansion. The local economy persists in the quiet rhythm of small-scale farming and the seasonal influx of visitors seeking the seclusion of the protected woodlands. While the Southern Michigan State Forest Nursery sits fifteen miles away as a reminder of the region’s long-standing commitment to silviculture, the character here remains tied to the soil and the stubborn, seasonal cycle of the harvest. Life moves in accordance with the changing light, where the golden hour transforms the meadows into a brief, luminous stage before the shadows of the hardwoods reclaim the ground, leaving the residents to their quiet, agrarian routines.

About This Lyndon Township Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lyndon Township, Michigan. Coordinates: 42.378767, -84.080161. 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 Lyndon Township includes the ZIP code (48118), telephone area code (313), county seat of Washtenaw County (Ann Arbor), 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.
