Explore Kent, 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 Kent, 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 Kent.
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.

Kent remains a quiet expanse defined by the vast, shimmering presence of Lake Ontario, which anchors the northern horizon with its profound depth. It lies 22.9 miles north of Batavia, NY (from Batavia, NY: bearing 7°T), and is situated 6.3 miles north-northeast of Albion. Marsh Creek winds its way through the landscape, acting as a constant, rhythmic pulse that sustains the soil and the life gathered along its banks. The terrain offers a expansive, open character where the light of late afternoon stretches long and golden across the fields. To the distance, Bulgary Ridge rises as a faint, muted silhouette, grounding the view in a steady, geologic stillness. Residents of Kent often watch the changing colors of the sky as they reflect against the low-lying plains, finding a particular peace in the vastness of the local sky.
Agriculture and the rhythms of the land have long dictated the pace of life in Kent, where the economy remains tied to the fertility of the soil and the surrounding woodlands. Generations have worked these fields, building a foundation of industry that values labor and the persistent care of the earth. The local economy finds its stability in the quiet productivity of its residents, who maintain a steady, unadorned approach to their daily trades. While the modern world moves at a different speed, the people here continue to prioritize the reliability of their seasonal harvests and the maintenance of their homesteads. This dedication ensures that Kent keeps a firm grip on its heritage, favoring the tangible rewards of manual effort over the fleeting trends of more urban centers.
Cultural life in Kent breathes through the simple traditions and the shared spaces that bring neighbors together throughout the shifting seasons. The Town Of Carlton Land offers a sprawling, natural sanctuary where the community can observe the quiet movements of local wildlife and the changing foliage. While the pace of life is deliberate and unassuming, the character of the people reflects a sturdy independence shaped by the wide horizons. Notable landmarks are few, as the true identity of the place lies in the intersections of the roads and the history preserved in the quiet corners of the landscape. No singular figure of global fame defines the spirit here, as the focus remains on the collective resilience and the understated beauty of the daily routine. Kent persists as a place where the air feels crisp and the silence carries the weight of a long, uninterrupted history.

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.
