Explore Saint Croix, 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 Saint Croix, 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 Saint Croix.
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.

Saint Croix occupies a quiet expanse of the interior landscape, defined by its distance from any salt-laden air or distant tides. It lies 8.9 miles southeast of New Richmond, WI (from New Richmond, WI: bearing 125°T), and is situated 8.7 miles southwest of Forest. The terrain surrounding Saint Croix consists of expansive, open plains and subtle inclines that catch the low, honeyed light of late afternoon, casting long shadows across the fields. Only a mile away, the Kinnickinnic River carves its path through the earth, offering a steady, rhythmic presence to the land, while the nearby waters of Pine Lake provide a reflective mirror for the shifting clouds. Twelve miles distant, the silhouette of Big Mound rises against the horizon, a constant, steady marker in an otherwise unfolding vista of midwestern terrain.
Settlement in Saint Croix followed the patterns of those who sought to cultivate the deep, fertile soil of the interior, drawing families who valued the quiet endurance of the seasons. Early inhabitants arrived to work the land, establishing a rhythm of sowing and reaping that remains a silent pulse beneath the modern surface of Saint Croix. The heritage of the region is built upon the labor of those who first cleared the brush and organized the grid of the countryside, leaving behind a legacy of resilience. This history persists in the modest, sturdy architecture of the older dwellings, which have weathered decades of sharp winters and humid summers with an understated dignity.
Economic life in Saint Croix centers on the careful management of regional resources and the industrious spirit of its residents, who balance agricultural roots with contemporary enterprise. While the infrastructure supports the necessities of modern life, the economy remains tethered to the productivity of the surrounding fields and the small-scale commerce that serves the immediate population of Saint Croix. Educational needs are met by regional institutions that foster a tradition of practical learning, preparing the youth for a world that expects both technical skill and a thoughtful approach to local challenges. There is a sense of deliberate pace here, where the infrastructure—roads, bridges, and power lines—functions as the quiet skeleton of a community that prefers to grow with measured intent.
Cultural life in Saint Croix finds its expression in the communal gatherings that mark the passage of the year, often centered on the Casey Lake State Habitat Area-Western Prairie Habitat Restoration Area. This particular land, preserved for its native grasses and quiet biodiversity, serves as a sanctuary for those seeking a moment of stillness away from the demands of the professional calendar. While the region shares the Midwestern affinity for spirited, local athletics and the seasonal excitement of college competition, the true character of Saint Croix is found in the modest festivals that celebrate the harvest or the simple joy of a crisp, clear evening. Life here is defined not by grand, public spectacles, but by the steady, unpretentious quality of neighborly connection and the enduring beauty of the open plains.

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.
