How to Use This Woodford, Wisconsin Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Woodford, 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 Woodford.
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 Woodford, Wisconsin
Woodford is a locality in Lafayette County, Wisconsin, United States. It is a small community with a population of 71. The population density is 113.7 people per km². Woodford is located at 42.6486°N, 89.8626°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 53599.Woodford sits within a landscape of deep, unglaciated folds where the Trotter Branch carves a quiet, persistent path through the limestone-rich earth. It lies 10.9 miles east of Lafayette, WI (from Lafayette, WI: bearing 83°T), and is situated 12.1 miles west of Green. The horizon to the west is defined by the distant, hazy silhouette of Big Hill Savanna, while the immediate terrain surrounding Woodford gives way to the shadowed, narrow embrace of Jockey Hollow. Sunlight here has a peculiar, heavy quality, catching on the tall grasses and the limestone outcroppings that define this rugged, inland geography. Five miles to the south, the landscape softens into the protected wetlands of Cadiz Springs State Recreation Area, where the water moves with a deliberate, glass-like stillness that contrasts with the brisk, narrow current of the nearby creeks.
Railroad history once dictated the pulse of the region, leaving behind a quiet legacy that informs the slow, deliberate pace of contemporary life in Woodford. Agriculture remains the primary industry, with dairy farms and expansive fields of corn and hay stretching across the topography, echoing the industrious, multi-ethnic heritage of the early settlers who broke this soil. On Friday evenings, the local air carries the scent of traditional fish fries, a staple of the regional supper-club culture that persists long after the trains have ceased their regular service. Seven miles to the north, the waters of Zander Lake offer a rare, open expanse of blue against the dense canopy of the surrounding timber, serving as a landmark for those who work the land and observe the changing seasons from the high ridges.

About This Woodford Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Woodford, Wisconsin. Coordinates: 42.648616, -89.862623. 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 Woodford includes the ZIP code (53599), telephone area code (715), county seat of Lafayette County (Darlington), and school district assignment (Black Hawk 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.
