How to Use This Delafield, Wisconsin Map

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

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.

It lies 6.0 miles southeast of Oconomowoc, WI (from Oconomowoc, WI: bearing 126°T), and is situated 9.3 miles west-northwest of Waukesha.

The Bark River winds through the terrain, its rhythmic flow serving as a persistent pulse that shapes the meadows and woodlands surrounding the center of Delafield. Only two miles distant, the elevation of Lapham Hill rises to offer a vantage point over the verdant, inland plains that stretch toward the horizon. St. John's Park provides a preserved sanctuary for local flora, ensuring that the natural character of the region remains shielded from the rush of modern life. Those seeking a longer journey find the Ice Age National Scenic Trail just three miles away, inviting travelers to walk the ancient paths left by retreating glaciers. When the afternoon light catches the water, the air feels heavy with the scent of damp earth and cooling timber, a sensory reminder of the inland geography.

Settlers arrived in Delafield with a vision for harnessing the power of the land, eventually establishing a regional hub that transitioned from early agrarian roots to a diversified economic base. The local economy grew steadily, bolstered by industries that leveraged the proximity to the Bark River and the fertile soil of the surrounding countryside. Generations of residents have maintained a steady commercial rhythm, favoring independent ventures that mirror the industrious spirit of the early settlers. Even today, the legacy of this development remains visible in the architecture and the deliberate layout of the commercial districts. The transition from a quiet settlement to a modern center has been marked by a commitment to preserving the balance between enterprise and the natural environment. This evolution reflects a broader regional history where the intersection of trade and landscape dictates the prosperity of the inhabitants.

Delafield possesses a cultural character defined by a blend of tradition and a quiet, deliberate pace of life that persists through every season. Notable landmarks punctuate the area, serving as physical reminders of the values that have shaped the identity of the people over many decades. Local events frequently gather the community, fostering a sense of connection that remains central to the daily experience of living here. Famous individuals, such as the legendary actor Alfred Lunt and his wife Lynn Fontanne, found sanctuary at their nearby estate, Ten Chimneys, which continues to stand as a beacon of artistic and intellectual heritage. The atmosphere on a quiet evening often carries the resonance of a place that knows its own worth, untouched by the noise of distant urban centers. Here, the focus remains on the quality of the immediate environment and the strength of the bonds formed within it.

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.
