How to Use This Blasdell, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Blasdell, 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 Blasdell.
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.

ZIP code: 14219.Blasdell emerges from the flat, industrial plains of Western New York as a singular junction of residential life and heavy infrastructure. It lies 2.0 miles south of Lackawanna, NY (from Lackawanna, NY: bearing 180°T), and is situated 6.8 miles south-southeast of Buffalo. The horizon remains wide and unencumbered, save for the distant, hazy silhouette of Bear Ridge far to the east, while the sky above Blasdell often carries the heavy, slate-gray weight of winter clouds that gather over Lake Erie, situated just two miles to the west. Rush Creek carves a shallow, unassuming path through the local topography, its waters moving with a deliberate, quiet persistence toward the lake. Within the village limits, the Blasdell Village Of Land provides a modest, essential patch of green space where the air often tastes of metallic industry and the cooling influence of the nearby Great Lakes basin.
Railroads and the remnants of a steel-forging past define the economic character of Blasdell, where the clatter of freight trains frequently punctuates the rhythm of the day. Generations have built their lives around the steady pulse of manufacturing, creating a landscape of sturdy homes and paved arteries that favor utility over ornament. While the expansive Big Gulf lies seven miles away, the immediate surroundings of Blasdell are shaped by the flat, fertile earth that once supported early agriculture before the rise of the iron and rail trades. Life here moves with the pragmatic directness of its workers, finding beauty in the stark, clean lines of a winter sunset reflecting off the flat land and the enduring, unpretentious spirit of a village that remains deeply connected to the industrial heritage of the region.

About This Blasdell Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Blasdell, New York. Coordinates: 42.797281, -78.823366. 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 Blasdell includes the ZIP code (14219), telephone area code (716), county seat of Erie County (Buffalo), and school district assignment (Frontier 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.
