Explore Lima, 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 Lima, 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 Lima.
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.

Lima occupies a landscape of quiet, agrarian persistence where the persistent Spring Brook carves a narrow, silver ribbon through the deep, loamy soil. It lies 10.7 miles south of Henrietta, NY (from Henrietta, NY: bearing 180°T), and is situated 8.4 miles southwest of Mendon. The horizon remains wide and unobstructed, though the faint, jagged suggestion of Maple Ridge haunts the distant skyline like a memory of higher ground. Earthy scents of turned fields and damp vegetation define the air here, especially as the sun lowers to catch the mist rising from the nearby Long Pond. Within the borders of Lima Village Lands, the land retains a sense of primordial stillness, untouched by the frantic pace of larger urban centers, where the trees lean in toward one another as if sharing the weight of the changing seasons.
Agriculture has long dictated the rhythm of Lima, shaping the orderly geometry of the surrounding fields and the sturdy, unpretentious character of its architecture. History here is marked by the enduring presence of educational institutions that emerged from early settlement efforts, anchoring the local economy in a tradition of quiet scholarship and communal stability. The rush of Honeoye Falls nearby provides a sharp, rhythmic counterpoint to the town’s steady pulse, while the distant, shadowed depths of Woodchuck Hollow suggest the rugged complexity hidden beneath the surface of the plateau. Life in Lima moves with the deliberate grace of a pendulum, focused on the maintenance of the soil and the continuity of a legacy that prizes substance over spectacle.

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.
