How to Use This Powers Lake, Wisconsin Map

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

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 Powers Lake, Wisconsin

Powers Lake is a locality in Kenosha County, Wisconsin, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,401. The population density is 230.0 people per km². Powers Lake is located at 42.5415°N, 88.2960°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 53128, 53159.

Powers Lake occupies a quiet hollow in the landscape where the glacial till settles into fertile, dark earth and the horizon stretches across fields of tall, swaying grasses. It lies 8.6 miles south of Burlington, WI (from Burlington, WI: bearing 186°T), and is situated 9.9 miles west of Salem Lakes. The terrain unfolds in modest swells and dips, colored by the deep greens of summer crops and the amber hues of autumn, while the water of Powers Lake remains the primary anchor for the local horizon. Sunlight catches the surface of the water in a way that suggests a profound stillness, reflecting the wide, open sky that dominates this inland expanse. To the north, the elevation rises slightly toward the modest rise of Mount Moriah, providing a subtle verticality to the otherwise expansive, level plains. Beyond the immediate periphery, the landscape is defined by the winding course of the East Branch North Branch Nippersink Creek, which cuts through the soil with a persistent, quiet energy.

Powers Lake serves as a quiet witness to the generations of agricultural stewardship that have defined the rhythm of life in this corner of the state. The local economy maintains a steady cadence, rooted in a history of small-scale farming and a culture that values the simple, enduring traditions of the region. Residents find common ground in the Statewide Public Access, a space that invites a slow, deliberate engagement with the natural world. On quiet evenings, the air carries a crispness that speaks to the changing seasons, a reminder of the enduring stability found in a landscape shaped by labor and time. The community preserves its character through a shared appreciation for the land, where the pace of the day is dictated not by the rush of industry, but by the subtle shifts in the light and the steady, unhurried flow of the nearby creek.

About This Powers Lake Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Powers Lake, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 42.541483, -88.295976. 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 Powers Lake includes the ZIP code (53128, 53159), telephone area code (608), county seat of Kenosha County (Kenosha), and school district assignment (Randall Joint No. 1 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.
