Explore Taylor, 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 Taylor, 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 Taylor.
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.

Taylor occupies a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of French Creek, which carves a path through the earth just a short distance from the center of the village. It lies 18.3 miles south of Price, WI (from Price, WI: bearing 190°T), and is situated 19.5 miles east-northeast of Arcadia. The terrain here is characterized by the soft, unglaciated geometry of the Driftless region, where the land rises into the distinct elevation of Oak Ridge on the distant horizon. Only a mile away, the hollow of Jonahs Coulee creates a sheltered pocket in the topography, while the nearby Statewide Wildlife Habitat - Sd offers a sanctuary of tall grasses and native brush that shift color with the passing seasons. The light at dusk settles heavy and gold over the fields, lending a sudden, sharp clarity to the fence lines and the dense clusters of woodland that break the monotony of the open plains.
Taylor maintains an economy rooted in the legacy of the surrounding dairy country, where the rhythm of the day is dictated by the requirements of the land rather than the clock. Settlers of German and Scandinavian descent established these homesteads generations ago, leaving a imprint on the architecture and the reserved, industrious character of the people who still work the soil. Life here moves with a deliberate, measured pace, punctuated by the occasional excursion to Lake Henry for a quiet afternoon or a Friday evening gathering at a local supper club. The community remains tethered to these traditional patterns, finding a subtle, enduring beauty in the intersection of productive farmland and the wilder, uneven stretches of the countryside.

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.
