How to Use This Brandon, Vermont Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Brandon, Vermont. 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 Vermont 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 Brandon.

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 Brandon, Vermont

Brandon is a locality in Rutland County, Vermont, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,727. The population density is 235.6 people per km². Brandon is located at 43.8105°N, 73.0903°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 05733.

Brandon anchors itself in a landscape defined by the steady, unceasing passage of the Neshobe River, which winds through the center of the settlement like a silver thread pulled taut across the valley floor. It lies 14.2 miles north-northwest of Rutland, VT (from Rutland, VT: bearing 336°T), and is situated 15.5 miles south-southeast of Middlebury. The air here holds a crisp, persistent clarity, often carrying the scent of damp earth and pine from the nearby Brandon Municipal Forest. To the east, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Green Mountains marks the horizon, while the terrain closer to home remains defined by the moist, low-lying expanse of the Otter Creek Swamps Natural Area. The light at dusk settles heavily upon the slate roofs and brick facades, turning the gray stone into a muted, velvet indigo that deepens as the temperature drops.

History remains etched into the architecture of Brandon, where mid-nineteenth-century homes stand as quiet observers of a transition from early industrial milling to a more meditative pace of life. The local economy, once tethered to the power of the water, now moves with the quiet industry of independent artisans and small-scale agriculture that defines the surrounding fields. Travelers often find their way toward the Duval Trail for a walk through the woods or journey toward the Falls of Lana to witness the water’s descent over the rock face. Even the quiet stillness of Jones Mill Pond reflects the character of a place that prefers the steady rhythm of the seasons over the frantic pulse of the modern world, maintaining a legacy that is as sturdy and enduring as the limestone foundations of its oldest streets.

About This Brandon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Brandon, Vermont. Coordinates: 43.810474, -73.09028. 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 Brandon includes the ZIP code (05733), telephone area code (802), county seat of Rutland County (Rutland), and school district assignment (Otter Valley Unified Union School District 53).

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.
