How to Use This Freeville, New York Map

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

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.

Freeville occupies a quiet expanse of central land where Fall Creek carves a persistent, winding path through the local topography. It lies 7.1 miles east-northeast of Lansing, NY (from Lansing, NY: bearing 73°T), and is situated 9.2 miles east-northeast of Ithaca. The landscape around Freeville is defined by the steady, unpretentious rise of the earth, leading toward the far-off silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains that anchor the horizon. A short distance away, the Genung Nature Preserve offers a quiet sanctuary of wild growth, while the deeper greenery of Yellow Barn State Forest marks the edge of the regional timberland. The light here in the late afternoon possesses a thin, clear quality, catching the movement of the water as it shifts over stones, cold and constant, toward the distant rush of Ithaca Falls.

Railroad history once dictated the pulse of Freeville, leaving behind a legacy of transit that shifted the local economy from its early agrarian roots toward a more interconnected, village-based commerce. Today, the pace of life maintains a deliberate, measured cadence, far removed from the frantic density found further south. Residents look toward the nearby expanse of Pleasant Valley, where the terrain softens, or toward the stillness of Mud Pond when seeking a moment of reflection. The character of the place remains tied to the land and the changing seasons, a quiet endurance that persists despite the shifting tides of industry, grounded always by the persistent, rhythmic flow of the creek.

About This Freeville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Freeville, New York. Coordinates: 42.513961, -76.346601. 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 Freeville includes the ZIP code (13068), telephone area code (315), county seat of Tompkins County (Ithaca), and school district assignment (Dryden 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.
