How to Use This Manhattan, Montana Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Manhattan, 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 Manhattan.
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 Manhattan, Montana
Manhattan is a locality in Gallatin County, Montana, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,086. The population density is 462.9 people per km². Manhattan is located at 45.8566°N, 111.3325°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. Manhattan is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 59741.Manhattan occupies a flat, expansive stretch of the Gallatin Valley floor, where the horizon pulls away in every direction to reveal a vast, pale sky. It lies 9.3 miles northwest of Belgrade, MT (from Belgrade, MT: bearing 307°T), and is situated 18.7 miles northwest of Bozeman. The land here is defined by its agricultural openness, a wide expanse that meets the distant, jagged silhouette of the Bridger Range to the east. A mile away, the modest flow of Camp Creek cuts through the earth, a thin silver ribbon that traces the edges of the fields and sustains the surrounding soil. To the north, the terrain rises into the dry, sage-dusted slopes of Nixon Gulch, while the nearby Montana State Trust Lands offer a quiet, rugged expanse of open space that remains largely undisturbed by the pace of human activity. The light at dusk here is particularly thin and sharp, casting long, bruised shadows that stretch across the stubble of the harvested fields until the earth and sky seem to dissolve into a single, darkening plane.
Manhattan emerged from the ambition of early settlers who recognized the potential of this fertile basin, establishing a legacy that remains tied to the cycles of grain and the demands of the soil. The local economy persists as a quiet engine of agriculture and trade, where the rhythm of the day is dictated by the movement of heavy machinery and the seasonal harvest that colors the landscape in shades of gold and amber. Life in Manhattan feels deliberate, focused on the steady maintenance of fences and the long-standing traditions of a farming community that has seen generations pass through its streets. While the nearest water, the Willow Creek Reservoir, lies twenty miles away, the identity of the place is not defined by distant shores but by the immediate, practical reality of the valley and the immense, silent distance that separates one cluster of light from the next.

About This Manhattan Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Manhattan, Montana. Coordinates: 45.856595, -111.33246. 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 Manhattan includes the ZIP code (59741), telephone area code (406), county seat of Gallatin County (Bozeman), and school district assignment (Manhattan School).
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.
