Explore Auburndale, Wisconsin, 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 Auburndale, Wisconsin. 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 Wisconsin 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 Auburndale.
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.

Auburndale emerges from the flat, industrious sprawl of central Wisconsin as a quiet junction where the horizon stretches wide across open fields. It lies 8.6 miles east-southeast of Marshfield, WI (from Marshfield, WI: bearing 110°T), and is situated 12.3 miles east-northeast of Rock. The landscape surrounding Auburndale is defined by the steady, low-slung transit of Little Bear Creek, which winds through the damp earth only a mile from the center, feeding the moisture that sustains the dark, rich soil of the region. To the west, the distant elevation of the Philippine Islands haunts the hazy line where sky meets land, while the nearby Mead Wildlife Area offers a vast, untamed expanse of marsh and timber that anchors the ecological rhythm of the vicinity. Here, the light of late afternoon slants low against the silos, turning the gray asphalt and verdant rows of crops into a study of stark, functional beauty.
Agriculture remains the pulse of this place, a tradition built upon the persistent labor of generations who shaped the local economy through dairy farming and the steady harvest of the plains. The influence of early settlers is felt in the methodical layout of the streets and the enduring preference for communal gatherings, where the local supper club serves as a bridge between the workweek and the respite of the weekend. While the nearby Soapstone Pit and the waters of Rangeline Flowage provide quiet corners for observation, the life of the inhabitants is primarily keyed to the seasonal demands of the land. Auburndale preserves a particular character, one defined less by rapid change than by the patient, recurring cycles of planting, harvest, and the deep, hushed stillness that settles over the frozen fields when the year turns cold.

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.
