How to Use This Genesee Depot, Wisconsin Map

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

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 Genesee Depot, Wisconsin

Genesee Depot is a locality in Waukesha County, Wisconsin, United States. It is a small community with a population of 680. The population density is 55.0 people per km². Genesee Depot is located at 42.9667°N, 88.3712°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 53127.

Genesee Depot occupies a quiet expanse of the Wisconsin landscape, anchored by the slow, deliberate currents of the South Branch Genesee Creek. It lies 7.7 miles west-southwest of Waukesha, WI (from Waukesha, WI: bearing 246°T), and is situated 9.6 miles southwest of Pewaukee. The land here unfolds in broad, glacial signatures, where the earth rises toward the distant silhouette of Lapham Hill and softens into the marshy margins of Hayslope Lake, which sits a mile from the center of the terrain. Sunlight catches the moisture rising from the low-lying fields, turning the morning air into a cool, silver veil that clings to the grasses of Butler Park. This is a place of heavy soil and wide horizons, where the sky exerts a constant, quiet pressure on the pastures, and the rhythm of the seasons dictates the color of the horizon from deep, frozen gray to the lush, vibrant green of midsummer.

Genesee Depot preserves the echoes of a rail-dependent past, when the steady pulse of commerce moved through the junction to feed the regional hunger for dairy and grain. The economy remains rooted in the character of the land, drawing sustenance from the surrounding agricultural traditions that have defined these families for generations. Residents move with the measured patience of those who live four miles from the Ice Age National Scenic Trail, often finding their way toward the local gathering spots as the evening shadows lengthen over the fields. Life here avoids the frantic pace of larger hubs, favoring instead the persistence of small-town industry and the enduring quiet that settles over the water of Hayslope Lake when the day’s work is finally laid to rest.

About This Genesee Depot Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Genesee Depot, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 42.966678, -88.371207. 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 Genesee Depot includes the ZIP code (53127), telephone area code (608), county seat of Waukesha County (Waukesha), and school district assignment.

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.
