Explore Huntington, New York, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Huntington, 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 Huntington.
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.

Huntington occupies a distinct position upon the northern reaches of a long, narrow landscape, where the earth yields to the salt-heavy air of the Atlantic. It lies 1.3 miles northwest of Huntington Station, NY (from Huntington Station, NY: bearing 324°T), and is situated 5.6 miles east of Oyster Bay. The terrain here is defined by a subtle, glacial persistence, characterized by uneven ground that slopes toward the water, creating a topography that feels both intimate and expansive. Only one mile separates the center of Huntington from the steady, rhythmic tides of Huntington Bay, a body of water that dictates the cooling breezes and the pearlescent quality of the morning light. While the distant, jagged shadows of the Appalachian Mountains reside ninety-six miles away, the immediate surroundings of Huntington are defined by the quiet expanse of the TOWN OF HUNTINGTON Land, a sprawling public space that preserves the local flora. Further inland, the gentle dips of the Little Plains offer a contrast to the coastal incline, while the distant, rushing presence of Great Falls remains forty miles removed, leaving this place to be shaped by the slower, more deliberate movement of tides and wind.
Settlers arrived in Huntington with a vision for a life tethered to the harvest of both land and sea, establishing a footprint that has deepened over centuries of occupation. The original intent of those who laid the foundations was to cultivate a sustainable existence, utilizing the proximity to the bay for trade and the fertile soil for communal survival. Through the generations, Huntington has evolved from a collection of colonial outposts into a place of enduring character, where the architecture often serves as a silent chronicle of past ambitions. The legacy of these early inhabitants remains visible in the street patterns and the preservation of open spaces, ensuring that the origins of the settlement are never entirely obscured by the modern expansion that has gradually moved in around it.
Economic vitality in Huntington thrives on a blend of commercial enterprise and a commitment to professional growth, supported by a robust infrastructure that connects the local workforce to the wider region. The town serves as a hub for diverse industries, fostering a climate where small businesses and larger ventures coexist, supported by a network of roads and services that facilitate the daily movement of people and goods. Education remains a cornerstone of the identity of Huntington, with institutions dedicated to preparing the next generation for a changing world. Though Mill Pond sits three miles away as a tranquil reminder of the area's natural hydrology, the economic pulse of the region is driven by more modern conduits, including the specialized services and professional offices that define the local commercial corridors.
Culture in Huntington finds its expression in the vibrant intersection of seasonal festivals and the ongoing appreciation for the arts, which permeate the daily experience of those who live here. The calendar is marked by events that bring the public into the streets, celebrating the communal spirit that characterizes the local social fabric. Residents often find themselves drawn to the landmarks that define the town's silhouette, or perhaps venturing toward Sand City Island, which sits four miles out as a solitary feature in the bay. While Tiffany Creek flows four miles away, providing a quiet corridor for local wildlife, the human energy of Huntington is focused on its theaters, galleries, and the many restaurants that animate the evening hours. Notable figures have frequently found inspiration in the specific atmosphere of this place, contributing to a legacy of creative output that matches the steady, enduring rhythm of life by the bay.

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.
