Explore Arkville, New York, 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 Arkville, New York. 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 New York 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 Arkville.
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.

Arkville claims its place within the deep, quiet folds of German Hollow, where the land rises in patient, shadowed inclines toward the distant, hazy prominence of the Catskill Mountains. It lies 20.9 miles west of Edgewood, NY (from Edgewood, NY: bearing 272°T), and is situated 9.8 miles south-southwest of Roxbury. Dry Brook cuts a winding, silver-threaded path through the floor of the valley, its current constant and cool as it moves toward the nearby basin of Pepacton Reservoir. The air here holds the scent of damp shale and cooling pine, a heavy, grounded stillness that settles over the Arkville Water Lands as the sun dips behind the western ridges. In the late afternoon, the light turns a bruised, metallic gold, catching the edges of the hardwoods and illuminating the sheer, persistent vitality of the water as it carves through the ancient, stony earth.
Arkville bears the quiet weight of a past built upon the industry of the rail and the timber trade, though today its rhythm is defined by the slow turnover of seasons and the preservation of its rugged, inland character. The local economy persists in the quiet labor of small-scale agriculture and the stewardship of the surrounding wilderness, drawing those who seek the isolation found in the high, thin air of the interior. Travelers occasionally pause to track the course of the water toward the hidden drop of Canada Falls, or to walk the paths that trace the edges of the valley floor. Life moves with an unhurried, deliberate gravity, defined by the practical necessity of preparing for the long, white winters that eventually mute the landscape and pull the community inward, toward the hearth and the silence of the woods.

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.
