How to Use This Alsea, Oregon Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Alsea, Oregon. 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 Oregon 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 Alsea.

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 Alsea, Oregon

Alsea is a locality in Benton County, Oregon, United States. It is a small community with a population of 165. The population density is 408.4 people per km². Alsea is located at 44.3815°N, 123.5965°W. It observes the Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles) timezone. ZIP code: 97324.

Alsea occupies a quiet expanse of land where the North Fork Alsea River carves a deliberate path through the rugged terrain. It lies 20.8 miles southwest of Corvallis, OR (from Corvallis, OR: bearing 233°T), and is situated 15.7 miles southwest of Philomath. The landscape is defined by the steep, verdant ridges of the Coast Range that loom ten miles away, their silhouettes often softened by a persistent, low-hanging mist that clings to the Douglas firs. High above the valley floor, the air carries the scent of damp earth and crushed needles, a testament to the influence of the nearby Siuslaw National Forest. A few miles distant, the waters of Gygi and Engle Reservoir catch the shifting light, reflecting the muted tones of the sky, while the Alsea River itself serves as a constant, rhythmic companion to those who traverse its banks. When the afternoon sun catches the spray of Green Peak Falls, the light fractures into transient prisms, momentarily illuminating the hidden corners of this damp, inland wilderness.

Alsea remains anchored to a history of timber and small-scale agriculture, sectors that have long dictated the slow, deliberate pace of daily life. The residents maintain a quiet vigilance over the land, honoring a heritage rooted in the labor of the woods and the cultivation of the fertile soil found within the nearby Alsea Valley. Commerce here is modest and functional, favoring local necessity over the frantic pulse of larger urban centers, which allows the Alsea River to remain the primary artery of the region’s identity. The character of the locality is forged in the transition between seasons, where the damp gray of winter gives way to a lush, rapid spring that demands attention from every gardener and logger alike. Life moves with the current of the water, a steady progression that values the silence of the woods as much as the steady, enduring work of the people who call this place home.

About This Alsea Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Alsea, Oregon. Coordinates: 44.38151, -123.596494. 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 Alsea includes the ZIP code (97324), telephone area code (503, 971), county seat of Benton County (Corvallis), and school district assignment (Alsea School District 7J).

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.
