How to Use This Erin, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Erin, 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 Erin.

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 Erin, New York

Erin is a locality in Chemung County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 367. The population density is 189.7 people per km². Erin is located at 42.1859°N, 76.6699°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 14838.

Erin manifests as a series of quiet, terrestrial undulations where the persistent, silver-threaded path of Newtown Creek carves a slow migration through the valley floor. It lies 7.8 miles east of Horseheads, NY (from Horseheads, NY: bearing 80°T), and is situated 9.7 miles northeast of Elmira. The landscape here favors the modest elevation of temperate woodlands, where the air holds the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves long before the frost takes hold. Beyond the immediate banks of the creek, the horizon remains dominated by the stubborn, persistent geology of the region, while the distance to the Appalachian Mountains serves as a reminder of the vast, folded topography that defines the wider state. Four miles away, the surface of Beaver Pond offers a stillness that mirrors the muted gray of a winter sky, providing a structural anchor to a terrain that feels ancient, deliberate, and entirely removed from the clamor of the coast.

Erin maintains an economy rooted in the pragmatic traditions of land stewardship and the quiet persistence of local industry, where the rhythms of the day are dictated by the changing seasons rather than the pressures of urban expansion. The presence of TOWN OF ERIN Land ensures that large swaths of the environment remain preserved for the local inhabitant, acting as a green buffer against the encroachment of the modern world. Residents often look toward the deeper, more rugged timber of Cliffside State Forest for timber or recreation, while the memory of the landscape’s early development remains imprinted on the narrow, winding roads that connect the scattered homesteads. Whether one is navigating the steep, shadowed contours of Cornish Hollow or simply watching the afternoon light settle against the tree line, Erin possesses a grounded, unpretentious character that favors the slow, steady observation of the natural world over the fleeting distractions of the contemporary era.

About This Erin Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Erin, New York. Coordinates: 42.185908, -76.669949. 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 Erin includes the ZIP code (14838), telephone area code (607), county seat of Chemung County (Elmira), and school district assignment (Horseheads 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.
