How to Use This Maple City, Michigan Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Maple City, 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 Maple City.

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 Maple City, Michigan

Maple City is a locality in Leelanau County, Michigan, United States. It is a small community with a population of 209. The population density is 186.4 people per km². Maple City is located at 44.8556°N, 85.8559°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. ZIP code: 49664.

Maple City emerges from a landscape of glacial debris and heavy, fertile soil where the earth rises into broad, rounded knuckles of land. It lies 11.1 miles north-northwest of Long Lake Township, MI (from Long Lake Township, MI: bearing 331°T), and is situated 13.2 miles west-northwest of Traverse City. Lime Creek cuts a deliberate, winding path through the heavy loam near the village, its current carving deep into the dark bank where the water turns the color of steeped tea. To the east, the silhouette of Sugarloaf Mountain anchors the horizon, a firm reminder of the geological upheaval that shaped these basins. Two miles away, the surface of Lime Lake holds the sky in a mirror of glassy, undisturbed blue, while the nearby expanse of Miles Kimmerly Park provides a quiet corridor of meadow and brush where the air carries the sharp, clean scent of damp cedar and turned earth.

Maple City maintains a quiet endurance, defined by the long-standing rhythm of orchard work and the seasonal harvest that turns the surrounding hills into a mosaic of deep greens and autumnal rust. The local economy remains anchored in the stubborn, productive vitality of the soil, favoring the steady cultivation of fruit that has sustained generations since the earliest clearing of the woods. While the distant, sprawling canopy of the Pere Marquette State Forest suggests the vast, untamed timberland that once dominated the interior, the immediate life of Maple City feels more intimate, centered on the gravel roads and the slow, deliberate turn of the farming year. The light here at dusk settles heavily on the barns and silos, washing the landscape in a bruised violet hue that makes the physical presence of the land feel older and more permanent than the structures built upon it.

About This Maple City Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Maple City, Michigan. Coordinates: 44.855554, -85.85592. 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 Maple City includes the ZIP code (49664), telephone area code (989), county seat of Leelanau County (Suttons Bay Township), and school district assignment (Glen Lake Community 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.
