How to Use This Jamestown West, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jamestown West, 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 Jamestown West.
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 Jamestown West, New York
Jamestown West is a locality in Chautauqua County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,652. The population density is 406.3 people per km². Jamestown West is located at 42.0885°N, 79.2810°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 14701.Jamestown West holds the quiet gravity of the interior landscape, where the earth rises in slow, deliberate swells toward the distant silhouette of Quaker Ridge. It lies 2.4 miles west-southwest of Jamestown, NY (from Jamestown, NY: bearing 256°T), and is situated 8.2 miles south-southeast of Ellery. The air here carries the cooling influence of Chautauqua Lake, only a mile away, which settles into the hollows each evening like a gray, heavy silk. In the deep transition between seasons, the light catches the low-lying fields with a pale, brittle clarity, illuminating the way the Chadakoin River carves its path through the terrain two miles to the east. Residents find a familiar stillness in the proximity of Veterans Park, where the trees hold the silence of the inland plains, far removed from any maritime salt or spray.
Economic life in Jamestown West remains tethered to the industrious spirit that once defined the valleys of this region, drawing on a legacy of manufacturing that lingers in the sturdy architecture of the streetscapes. While the bustle of larger industrial hubs has receded, the local rhythm persists in the steady operation of small-scale commerce and the preservation of long-standing family trades. Beyond the immediate residential grid, the land stretches toward the distant shadows of Scranton Hollow and the managed timberlands of State Reforestation Area Number 10, grounding the inhabitants in a geography that values the persistence of the woods and the endurance of the soil. Jamestown West maintains an unassuming character, defined more by the disciplined turning of the seasons and the quiet commerce of daily labor than by the fleeting attention of the outside world.

About This Jamestown West Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jamestown West, New York. Coordinates: 42.0885, -79.281. 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 Jamestown West includes the ZIP code (14701), telephone area code (607), county seat of Chautauqua County (Mayville), and school district assignment (Southwestern Central School District at Jamestown).
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.
