How to Use This Pleasant Dale, Nebraska Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pleasant Dale, Nebraska. 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 Nebraska 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 Pleasant Dale.

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.

Pleasant Dale occupies a quiet expanse of the Nebraska plains where the sky commands the landscape, stretching wide and pale above the flattened horizon. It lies 13.9 miles west of Lincoln, NE (from Lincoln, NE: bearing 268°T), and is situated 6.3 miles east of Milford. The South Branch Middle Creek carves a shallow, meandering path through the earth nearby, its dark waters providing a persistent, low-slung artery for the surrounding fields of tallgrass and cultivated crops. Two miles away, the surface of Twin Lakes reflects the changing moods of the atmosphere, often appearing as a sheet of hammered pewter under the heavy, shifting clouds of the afternoon. The air here carries the scent of dry soil and curing hay, a sensory reminder of the relentless, expansive geography that defines the life of every resident.

Pleasant Dale maintains a steady, deliberate pace, anchored by a history built upon the labor of the surrounding agricultural economy. While the Twin Lakes Wildlife Management Area offers a sanctuary for local fauna and a quiet destination for those seeking a reprieve from the daily cycle of farm work, the rhythm of the place remains firmly tied to the harvest and the seasons. Those who seek more rigorous exploration often venture nine miles away to traverse the Pioneer Park Trails, yet the true character of Pleasant Dale is found in the stillness of its own borders. Evenings bring a particular quality of light that turns the gray fence posts to silhouettes, grounding the local life in a quiet, enduring permanence that is as vast as the prairie itself.

About This Pleasant Dale Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pleasant Dale, Nebraska. Coordinates: 40.79195, -96.932249. 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 Pleasant Dale includes the ZIP code (68423), telephone area code (402), county seat of Seward County (Seward), and school district assignment (Milford Public Schools).

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.
