Explore Metzger, Oregon, 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 Metzger, 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 Metzger.
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.

Metzger defines its edges through the quiet, persistent movement of Ash Creek, which carves a path through the low-lying terrain. It lies 1.2 miles north-northeast of Tigard, OR (from Tigard, OR: bearing 30°T), and is situated 6.7 miles southwest of Portland. The air here carries a distinct moisture, a lingering dampness that speaks to the proximity of the Pacific, where the tides push toward the distant, shimmering expanse of Blue Heron Bay. On clear mornings, the silhouette of the Coast Range emerges as a jagged, violet ink-line against the western horizon, while closer to home, the landscape settles into a series of modest slopes and pockets of woodland. Metzger Park serves as the green center of the neighborhood, offering a quiet refuge of grass and shade where the light at dusk filters through the boughs in thin, amber ribbons, grounding the pace of the afternoon in the simple shift of shadows.
Settlement in Metzger grew from the steady labor of early agricultural ventures, turning the soil into a productive mosaic that eventually transitioned into the residential character seen today. While the local economy has shifted away from the agrarian focus of its founding, the memory of that industry remains in the quiet, functional layout of the streets and the enduring resilience of the land. Residents often look toward the nearby waters of Lake Oswego for recreation, or cast their gaze toward the distant profile of Diamond Head, keeping a steady connection to the geological markers of the region. The rhythm of life in Metzger remains unhurried, defined by the steady, unassuming persistence of commuters and families who navigate the transition between the dense, forested outskirts and the encroaching reach of the wider metropolitan flow.

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.
