Explore Jordan, Minnesota, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jordan, Minnesota. 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 Minnesota 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 Jordan.
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.

Jordan claims a quiet stretch of land where the earth rises into gentle, fertile plains. It lies 8.6 miles south of Chaska, MN (from Chaska, MN: bearing 188°T), and is situated 8.9 miles north-northwest of New Prague. The Sand Creek meanders through the landscape, carving a path that defines the local topography and provides a cooling presence during the long, humid summers. Residents often find respite in the greenery of Pekarna Park, a space where the transition from dense woodland to open field feels most deliberate. On clear days, the silhouette of Buck Hill rests on the distant horizon like a soft bruise against the pale sky. The water of the Sand Creek Reservoir captures the shifting light of dusk, reflecting the amber hues of the changing seasons in its still, dark surface.
Jordan emerged from the grit of early agricultural enterprise, growing alongside the mills and businesses that once harnessed the power of the local waterways. The local economy has shifted from its foundational roots in milling and trade toward a diverse mix of manufacturing and modern service industries. Throughout the years, the rhythm of work has mirrored the seasonal cycles, with the harvest still holding a quiet importance in the collective consciousness. The people here maintain a steady, industrious pace, balancing the demands of growth with the preservation of a small-scale commercial identity. Infrastructure projects and local commerce continue to shape the way the inhabitants interact with the land, ensuring that the legacy of earlier settlers remains grounded in present-day utility.
Jordan holds a distinct cultural character that favors community connection and the quiet observance of regional traditions. Public gatherings often center on local events that celebrate the harvest or the changing of the leaves, drawing neighbors together in shared spaces. Among those who have emerged from the wider region, figures like the athlete and educator Bernie Bierman have left a mark on the broader American consciousness through their dedication to sport and discipline. Landmarks throughout the area serve as quiet reminders of a shared history, standing as markers of the ingenuity that allowed a settlement to thrive on these plains. Life here moves with an intentionality that respects the weight of the winters and the brief, vibrant intensity of the growing season. The spirit of Jordan remains tied to the land and the people who have chosen to cultivate a life in this specific, inland geography.

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.
