How to Use This Averill Park, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Averill Park, 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 Averill Park.
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 Averill Park, New York
Averill Park is a locality in Rensselaer County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,098. The population density is 200.7 people per km². Averill Park is located at 42.6444°N, 73.5538°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12018.Averill Park unfolds across an uneven landscape where the persistent, rhythmic flow of the Wynants Kill carves through the terrain, defining the movement of water and light across the earth. It lies 6.8 miles east-southeast of North Greenbush, NY (from North Greenbush, NY: bearing 113°T), and is situated 9.6 miles southeast of Troy. The air here holds a crisp, terrestrial weight, drifting inland from the distant, shadowed silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains that mark the horizon sixty-five miles away. Within the immediate vicinity, the surface of Burden Lake mirrors the shifting moods of the sky, its stillness offering a sharp contrast to the nearby, verdant acreage of the Town of Sand Lake Land. The quality of light during the transition to dusk turns the surrounding woodland into a mosaic of deep bronze and violet, grounding the observer in a geography that feels both ancient and quiet.
Averill Park draws its character from a history of industry and settlement that has evolved alongside the steady currents of the local economy. Beyond the timber-framed structures that speak to earlier generations, the region remains defined by its proximity to the vast, protected expanses of the Capital District Forest and Game Refuge, which serves as a silent witness to the changing seasons. Life here maintains a deliberate pace, far removed from the density of urban centers, where the local commerce and daily routines are shaped by the cycles of the inland climate. The presence of the Wynants Kill remains a constant, a subterranean memory of the mills and enterprises that once utilized its power to drive the growth of the locality, ensuring that the legacy of its founding remains visible in the very way the ground is arranged today.

About This Averill Park Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Averill Park, New York. Coordinates: 42.644407, -73.553822. 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 Averill Park includes the ZIP code (12018), telephone area code (518), county seat of Rensselaer County (Troy), and school district assignment (Averill Park Central 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.
