How to Use This Lakewood, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lakewood, 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 Lakewood.
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 Lakewood, New York
Lakewood is a locality in Chautauqua County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,002. The population density is 591.4 people per km². Lakewood is located at 42.0991°N, 79.3201°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Lakewood is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 14750.Lakewood occupies a low-lying basin where the light at dusk turns the water of Chautauqua Lake into a sheet of hammered pewter, reflecting the long, cooling shadows of the surrounding landscape. It lies 5.0 miles west of Jamestown, NY (from Jamestown, NY: bearing 276°T), and is situated 6.3 miles south-southeast of Ellery. The air here holds a crisp, persistent weight, moving inland across terrain that feels distant from any oceanic influence, defined instead by the quiet, heavy stillness of the interior. Village Of Lakewood Land provides a modest green edge where the manicured grass meets the shoreline, offering a vantage point to watch the slow, rhythmic shifts in the sky. To the north, the land rises into subtle, verdant swells, while the distant, jagged silhouette of Neils Ridge breaks the horizon, serving as a reminder of the tectonic weight that defines the region’s geology.
Lakewood maintains a steady, deliberate pace, anchored by a history of small-scale commerce that has evolved alongside the seasonal cycles of the water. While the industry of the past relied on the timber and agricultural potential of the surrounding soil, the modern economy finds its focus in the steady flow of seasonal visitors and the quiet commerce of the main thoroughfare. Dutch Hollow Creek meanders through the outskirts, a narrow vein of water that speaks to the drainage patterns of the deeper woods and the nearby State Reforestation Area Chautauqua Number 11. Life in Lakewood moves with the predictability of the changing seasons, where the primary concern remains the maintenance of a dignified, functional existence in a landscape that demands respect for its winter chill and its humid, verdant summers.

About This Lakewood Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lakewood, New York. Coordinates: 42.099141, -79.320102. 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 Lakewood includes the ZIP code (14750), 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.
