Explore Medina, Washington, 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 Medina, Washington. 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 Washington 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 Medina.
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.

Medina occupies a verdant peninsula that pushes firmly into the cool, dark waters of Lake Washington. It lies 1.5 miles west-northwest of Bellevue, WA (from Bellevue, WA: bearing 300°T), and is situated 5.0 miles east-northeast of Seattle. The landscape here is defined by a slow, deliberate slope toward the water, where the air often carries a damp, evergreen weight and the light at dusk turns the surface of the lake into a sheet of hammered pewter. While the Cascade Range remains a distant, snow-dusted suggestion on the horizon, the immediate terrain is shaped by the quiet, managed wildness of Medina Park, where the canopy of cedar and fir provides a sanctuary for local birds. The ground itself feels ancient and heavy, damp with the persistent gray moisture that dictates the rhythm of the seasons and keeps the foliage a vivid, deep shade of emerald throughout the year.
Medina holds a distinct place in the regional narrative, having evolved from early pioneer homesteads into a quiet enclave of private, expansive estates that define its modern character. The economy here is no longer tied to the small-scale agriculture of the past but is instead anchored by a high-value residential identity that maintains a profound, almost secretive stillness. Residents often look westward across the water toward the distant activity of Elliott Bay, yet the pace of life in Medina remains insulated from the frantic churn of the nearby urban centers. Beyond the private gates and manicured lawns, the legacy of the region persists in the quiet movement of the water and the occasional, fleeting shadow of a heron crossing toward Foster Island, grounding the inhabitants in a landscape that feels both deeply settled and perpetually watchful.

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.
