How to Use This Barron, Wisconsin Map

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

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.

Barron occupies a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of Quaderer Creek, which meanders through the terrain with a steady, unassuming grace. It lies 34.1 miles north of Rusk, WI (from Rusk, WI: bearing 359°T), and is situated 9.0 miles southwest of Rice Lake. The earth here is shaped by the subtle influence of the interior plains, where the horizon stretches wide and the light at dusk settles in long, amber layers across the fields. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the land lifts into modest elevations, providing a sense of scale that feels anchored to the horizon rather than reaching for the clouds. Residents often find their way to Peter S. Olson Park, a space that serves as a quiet witness to the changing seasons, while those seeking the stillness of deeper waters might venture the six miles to Prairie Lake.

Barron carries the legacy of generations who turned the soil and established a rhythm tied to the cycles of agriculture and industry. The local economy remains deeply rooted in the productivity of the land, reflecting a heritage of hard work that has shaped the character of the people and the storefronts alike. There is a distinct, unpretentious quality to the daily pace, where the influence of early settlers is still felt in the traditions that linger in the local supper clubs and community gatherings. Far from the rush of major centers, Barron maintains a steady internal gravity, sustained by the steady flow of its creek and the enduring endurance of its fields.

About This Barron Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Barron, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 45.401347, -91.849063. 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 Barron includes the ZIP code (54812), telephone area code (715), county seat of Barron County (Barron), and school district assignment (Barron Area School District).

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.
