How to Use This Waverly, Minnesota Map

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

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.

Waverly emerges from the flat, expansive horizon of the Minnesota plains where the sky claims more territory than the earth. It lies 8.5 miles south-southwest of Buffalo, MN (from Buffalo, MN: bearing 212°T), and is situated 8.8 miles west of Delano. Sunlight here possesses a distinct, thin clarity, illuminating the gentle depressions and the quiet, reflective surface of Waverly Lake that anchors the northern edge of the settlement. A single mile to the west, the modest current of Twelvemile Creek moves through the tall grasses, carving a slow path through the terrain that eventually leads toward the distant, low-lying expanse of the Swan Lakebed. The air maintains a persistent, crisp edge, carrying the scent of drying stalks and the damp, cooling weight of the approaching dusk as it settles over the open fields.

Railroad Park serves as the central point where the iron lines once defined the future of Waverly, marking the path of the trains that brought the first settlers to these interior reaches. The local economy remains tethered to the productive soil and the steady, rhythmic pulse of agriculture that has sustained families through the deep, silent winters for generations. Life in Waverly moves with a deliberate, measured pace, reflecting a heritage built on the sturdy endurance of those who first broke the prairie sod. The wooden structures and quiet streets maintain a modest dignity, standing as simple markers of a place that values the weight of its own history and the quiet consistency of the changing seasons.

About This Waverly Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Waverly, Minnesota. Coordinates: 45.06663, -93.966361. 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 Waverly includes the ZIP code (55390), telephone area code (612, 952), county seat of Wright County (Buffalo), and school district assignment (Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted).

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.
