How to Use This Ferndale, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Ferndale, 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 Ferndale.
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 codes: 12754, 12734.Ferndale occupies a quiet expanse of land where the Middle Mongaup River carves a deliberate path through the terrain, its waters reflecting the shifting gray and amber of the sky. It lies 19.7 miles west of Wawarsing, NY (from Wawarsing, NY: bearing 273°T), and is situated 8.6 miles north-northwest of Monticello. The landscape around Ferndale is defined by a slow, deliberate topography, with the distant Appalachian Mountains appearing as a bruised, violet smudge against the horizon on clear afternoons. Just a mile away, the stillness of Lake Ophelia provides a mirror for the surrounding hardwoods, while the nearby Town Of Liberty Land offers a stretch of untamed, wooded acreage that anchors the local wilderness. In the autumn, the air takes on a crisp, metallic edge, sharpening the silhouette of the trees and lending a sudden, vivid clarity to the long shadows that stretch across the meadows before dusk.
Ferndale carries the weight of a regional history that once saw it serving as a quiet waypoint for those moving through the interior, its economy shifting from early agrarian roots to a more modest, modern pace. The proximity of Krom Hollow, located five miles away, suggests the deep, geological patience of the area, a basin that has long dictated the flow of local commerce and movement. Life in Ferndale moves with a rhythmic, unforced consistency, defined by the seasonal cycles of the woods and the steady maintenance of rural life. Residents observe a quiet independence, finding a particular satisfaction in the way the sunlight fades over the Middle Mongaup River, signaling the end of a day that feels distinct from the frantic, high-density rhythms of the state’s urban centers.

About This Ferndale Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ferndale, New York. Coordinates: 41.773978, -74.738495. 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 Ferndale includes the ZIP code (12754, 12734), telephone area code (845), county seat of Sullivan County (Monticello), and school district assignment.
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.
