Explore Broadview, Montana, 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 Broadview, Montana. 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 Montana 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 Broadview.
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.

Broadview stretches across a vast expanse of high-plains prairie where the sky asserts its dominance over the earth, pressing down with a weight of blue that makes the horizon seem infinite. It lies 28.3 miles northwest of Billings, MT (from Billings, MT: bearing 320°T), and is situated 30.0 miles north of Laurel. The ground here is characterized by the subtle, persistent rise of the plains, broken occasionally by the quiet drainage of Sand Creek and the nearby stillness of Broadview Pond. While the distant, jagged line of the Rocky Mountains haunts the western edge of the world, the immediate terrain is defined by the open, austere beauty of Montana State Trust Lands, which surround the perimeter with unfenced, golden-grassed resilience. The light at dusk here does not merely fade; it pools in the low depressions of the landscape, turning the dry stubble of the fields into a palette of bruised lavender and deep, cooling gray.
Broadview grew from the necessity of the railroad, serving as a vital point for the movement of grain and livestock that continue to anchor the local economy today. The daily life of Broadview remains tethered to the cycles of the harvest and the patient, mechanical rhythm of the trains that bisect the plains, carrying the weight of the interior toward the markets of the world. Beyond the tracks, the land opens toward the gentle depression of Comanche Flat, a testament to the geological patience required to live in such a wide, exposed country. Residents carry a quiet, pragmatic independence, shaped by the immense distance between neighbors and the shared knowledge that the wind here is a constant, vocal companion that never truly settles into silence.

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.
