Explore Richfield, Nebraska, 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 Richfield, 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 Richfield.
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.

Richfield occupies a quiet expanse of the Nebraska plains where the sky asserts itself as the primary architect of the local horizon. It lies 3.6 miles south-southwest of Papillion, NE (from Papillion, NE: bearing 208°T), and is situated 9.8 miles west-southwest of Bellevue. The landscape unfolds in long, steady gradients of earth and grass, interrupted only by the occasional copse of trees or the subtle depression of a drainage basin. A mile away, Walnut Creek traces a slow, deliberate path through the silt, providing a modest moisture that supports the surrounding vegetation. Two miles to the west, the waters of Walnut Creek Lake catch the shifting light of the afternoon, acting as a polished mirror for the vast, open canopy above. During the autumn months, the air takes on a crisp, dry clarity that sharpens the edges of every fence line and silo, lending a sudden, vivid intensity to the familiar colors of the fields.
Richfield retains the measured pace of an agricultural foundation, where the rhythms of the seasons still dictate the tempo of daily life. The local economy remains tethered to the productivity of the soil, reflecting a legacy of stewardship that has persisted since the earliest settlers first turned the prairie sod. While the modern world presses in with its own demands, the proximity of the Walnut Creek Recreation Area offers a necessary reprieve, allowing residents to walk paths that feel removed from the mechanical hum of the highway. Those inclined toward a longer excursion might travel toward the Halleck Park Trail, yet there is a singular satisfaction in the local stillness, a quietude that persists even as the shadows grow long across the dirt roads at dusk. In these moments, Richfield feels less like a mark on a map and more like a steady, enduring presence amidst the immense, quiet theater of the plains.

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.
