How to Use This Milwaukee, North Carolina Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Milwaukee, North Carolina. 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 North Carolina 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 Milwaukee.

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 Milwaukee, North Carolina

Milwaukee is a locality in Northampton County, North Carolina, United States. It is a small community with a population of 157. The population density is 35.3 people per km². Milwaukee is located at 36.4054°N, 77.2322°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 27820.

Milwaukee occupies a quiet stretch of North Carolina where the land flattens into broad, fertile plains punctuated by dense stands of timber and the slow, deliberate movement of local waterways. It lies 23.8 miles east of Roanoke Rapids, NC (from Roanoke Rapids, NC: bearing 99°T), and is situated 7.9 miles west-southwest of Murfreesboro. Sunlight here possesses a particular amber quality in the late afternoon, catching the dust motes above the fields and illuminating the way the landscape dips toward the moisture-heavy banks of Paddys Delight Creek. Only a mile away, the surface of Doolittle Millpond remains largely undisturbed, its dark, reflective waters mirroring the changing canopy of the surrounding woods. On the distant horizon, the faint, hazy suggestion of the Ahoskie Ridge provides a sense of scale to a world defined by the patient expansion of earth and sky.

Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Milwaukee, as the economy stays tethered to the cycles of planting and harvest that have long dictated the rhythm of daily life. The regional identity is deeply connected to the stewardship of the land, an ethos reflected in the nearby North Carolina Safe Harbor Agreement - Red-cockaded Woodpecker, which protects the fragile habitats necessary for the survival of the local avian population. While the pace of existence in Milwaukee feels removed from the frenetic energy of larger centers, the inhabitants maintain a steadfast commitment to the traditions of the region, where the labor of the day is measured in the steady growth of crops and the preservation of the surrounding woodland.

About This Milwaukee Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Milwaukee, North Carolina. Coordinates: 36.405431, -77.232189. 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 Milwaukee includes the ZIP code (27820), telephone area code (919, 984), county seat of Northampton County (Jackson), and school district assignment (Northampton County 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.
