Explore Strum, 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 Strum, 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 Strum.
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.

Strum unfolds across a landscape of quiet, unglaciated terrain where the Buffalo River carves a deliberate path through the verdant, low-lying bottomlands. It lies 16.8 miles west of Price, WI (from Price, WI: bearing 263°T), and is situated 18.8 miles south-southeast of Eau Claire. The horizon is defined by the steady, muted silhouette of Bennett Ridge, which rises six miles away to anchor the sky above the fields. Near the center of the terrain, the waters of Strum Lake offer a still, reflective surface that catches the pale amber light of late afternoon, mirroring the shifting clouds as they drift over the nearby Buffalo River State Trail. The air here holds a crisp, earthen clarity, smelling of damp soil and the turning seasons, while the land itself bears the subtle, uneven character of a region left untouched by the ancient flattening force of ice.
Strum emerged from the industry of early settlers who recognized the potential in the fertile soil and the reliable flow of the Buffalo River to power local commerce. Today, the economy remains rooted in the rhythm of agricultural cycles and the steady output of dairy production, maintaining a character shaped by the heritage of those who first cleared the timber and organized the pastures of Berg Valley. Residents go about their days with a measured purpose, often gathering at local establishments to mark the end of the work week with a traditional fish fry. The pace of life in Strum remains tethered to these long-standing customs, an expression of a culture that favors the endurance of family and the quiet reliability of the neighboring hills over the frantic speed of modern life.

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.
