How to Use This Vicksburg, Michigan Map

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

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 Vicksburg, Michigan

Vicksburg is a locality in Kalamazoo County, Michigan, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,706. The population density is 488.5 people per km². Vicksburg is located at 42.1200°N, 85.5328°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/Detroit) timezone. Vicksburg is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 49097.

Vicksburg occupies a landscape where the slow, deliberate pulse of Portage Creek shapes the very contours of the earth, carving a path through the low-lying terrain. It lies 6.1 miles south-southeast of Portage, MI (from Portage, MI: bearing 157°T), and is situated 12.2 miles south-southeast of Kalamazoo. The waters of Sunset Lake spread out in a glassy expanse, mirroring the sky and anchoring the quiet geography of the region. Standing within the borders of Oswalt Park, the land feels held in a permanent, verdant stillness, far removed from the brine of any coast. To the distant horizon, the faint, hazy outline of Walnut Ridge suggests a boundary of ancient stone, while the persistent, damp air carries the scent of dark soil and the quiet weight of inland woods.

Vicksburg remains defined by the layered remnants of its industrial heritage, where the legacy of paper milling once dictated the rhythm of daily labor. The local economy, having long moved beyond its initial reliance on heavy manufacturing, now finds a different utility in the repurposed brick facades that line the streets, serving as reminders of a time when the hum of machinery was the singular voice of the neighborhood. Life here moves with a steady, unforced cadence, shaped by the proximity of the W K Kellogg Experimental Forest and the seasonal cycles of the surrounding plains. Whether observing the light as it catches the reeds along the creek or watching the evening shadows lengthen across the park, one senses that Vicksburg persists as a place of quiet endurance, where the past is not forgotten but simply folded into the ongoing work of the present.

About This Vicksburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Vicksburg, Michigan. Coordinates: 42.120046, -85.532775. 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 Vicksburg includes the ZIP code (49097), telephone area code (269), county seat of Kalamazoo County (Kalamazoo), and school district assignment (Vicksburg 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.
