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

ZIP codes: 14870, 14827.Coopers Plains reveals itself through the steady, deliberate movement of Meads Creek as it carves a path through the low-lying terrain. It lies 5.2 miles west-northwest of Corning, NY (from Corning, NY: bearing 301°T), and is situated 2.0 miles north-northwest of Erwin. The landscape here favors a quiet, inland composure, defined by the soft depression of Frog Hollow and the nearby stillness of Erwin Pond. At dusk, a distinct amber light settles over the fields, illuminating the grasses and casting long, thin shadows that stretch toward the horizon. Coopers Plains Park provides a central point of quietude, where the air remains crisp and the pace of the day slows to match the gentle flow of the water.
History lingers in the way the land is organized, reflecting a long-standing reliance on the local soil and the steady commerce that once moved along the regional corridors. While the distant Appalachian Mountains provide a faint, serrated outline against the sky, the immediate economy of Coopers Plains remains rooted in the practical realities of a rural interior. Life here follows the seasonal shifts of the upstate climate, marked by the transformation of the timber and the occasional frost that settles over the valley floor. Those who travel through find a place that values its own stillness, far from the frantic energy of the coast, where the memory of earlier industry persists in the quiet, functional geometry of the fields and the persistent, unhurried presence of the creek.

About This Coopers Plains Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Coopers Plains, New York. Coordinates: 42.182296, -77.141639. 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 Coopers Plains includes the ZIP code (14870, 14827), telephone area code (607), county seat of Steuben County (Bath), and school district assignment (Corning City 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.
