How to Use This Hornby, New York Map

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

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.

Hornby defines the landscape where the steady, persistent flow of the Dry Run carves a path through the quiet, rural terrain. It lies 7.0 miles north of Corning, NY (from Corning, NY: bearing 4°T), and is situated 7.3 miles northeast of Erwin. The land here rises in slow, deliberate swells, shifting from the low-lying reaches of the creek bed toward the deeper, more secluded pockets of Wilson Hollow. Sunlight filters through the canopy in a way that feels heavy and golden, illuminating the thick, earthy textures of the soil and the unpretentious greenery that stretches toward the horizon. Though the distant Appalachian Mountains provide a faint, jagged silhouette against the sky, the true character of the ground is found in the immediate, intimate details of the fields and the persistent persistence of the local flora. Within the boundaries of Hornby, the Town of Land serves as a quiet witness to the seasons, holding the silence that only an inland expanse of woods and open meadows can truly command.

History in this part of the country is written not in grand monuments, but in the slow, methodical labor of those who have worked these acres since the earliest settlements. The local economy remains anchored to the land, reflecting a tradition of agriculture and resourcefulness that has adapted to the changing demands of the decades. Life moves with the deliberate pace of the harvests, far removed from the frantic energy of metropolitan centers, finding its rhythm instead in the quiet maintenance of barns and the seasonal shifts of the rural calendar. While Sanford Lake remains a distant, cooling presence nine miles away and the dense timber of Cliffside State Forest marks the wilder borders of the region, the daily existence of Hornby centers on the sturdy, honest work of the present. It is a place where the air carries the scent of turned earth and drying hay, maintaining a steady, grounded identity that prizes the enduring value of the soil over the fleeting noise of the modern world.

About This Hornby Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hornby, New York. Coordinates: 42.244241, -77.044134. 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 Hornby includes the ZIP code (14812, 14843), telephone area code (607), county seat of Steuben County (Bath), 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.
