How to Use This St. Rosa, Minnesota Map

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

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.

St. Rosa emerges from the flat, expansive horizon of central Minnesota as a collection of quiet homesteads and weathered barns anchored to the dark, fertile earth. It lies 25.7 miles west-northwest of Sartell, MN (from Sartell, MN: bearing 287°T), and is situated 5.9 miles northeast of Melrose. The landscape around St. Rosa is defined by a slow, rhythmic transition between open prairie and small, persistent patches of woodland that harbor the seasonal shift of light from the pale, brittle yellow of autumn to the deep, absolute gray of a midwinter sky. A short distance away, the quiet surface of Long Lake reflects the clouds, while the North Two River winds its way through the nearby topography, carving a path that has sustained the local soil for generations. Beyond the immediate fields, the landscape remains largely undisturbed, save for the presence of the Stearns County Waterfowl Production Area, where the tall grasses provide a sanctuary for migratory birds. On the distant horizon, the faint, hazy outline of Ripley Esker serves as a subtle reminder of the glacial forces that once shaped this entire region.

St. Rosa maintains a steady, deliberate pace of life, rooted in the agricultural traditions established by the settlers who first broke the sod of these plains. The economy continues to revolve around the pulse of the changing seasons, with the machinery of local farms humming in rhythm with the planting and harvest cycles that have defined the character of St. Rosa for decades. This is a place where social life gathers around the small, communal spaces that have survived the long, deep winters of the North, fostering a quiet resilience among the residents. The history of the locality is written not in grand monuments, but in the enduring utility of its fences and the persistent maintenance of its local roads. Life here moves with a certain gravity, an acceptance of the vast, open space that demands both a heavy coat in January and a patient respect for the quietude of the surrounding countryside.

About This St. Rosa Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of St. Rosa, Minnesota. Coordinates: 45.730521, -94.715847. 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 St. Rosa includes the ZIP code (56331, 56352), telephone area code (320), county seat of Stearns County (St. Cloud), and school district assignment (Melrose Public School District).

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.
