How to Use This Linwood, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Linwood, 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 Linwood.

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.

Linwood stretches across a landscape defined by the modest, purposeful rhythms of rural New York, where the horizon is kept low by the distant, hazy silhouette of Bulgary Ridge. It lies 14.0 miles east-southeast of Batavia, NY (from Batavia, NY: bearing 121°T), and is situated 9.6 miles northwest of Geneseo. The land here holds a quiet gravity, characterized by open fields that catch the pale, slanted light of late afternoon, casting long shadows that emphasize the subtle swells of the earth. A mile to the west, the waters of LeRoy Reservoir offer a steady, reflective stillness, while the path of Browns Creek carves a narrow, winding corridor through the brush, its presence marked by a slight cooling of the air and the damp, earthy scent of riverbank silt. The Groveland Secondary Trailway cuts directly through the terrain, providing a singular, persistent artery for those who move through this quiet territory on foot or by bicycle.

Linwood maintains a character forged by the slow, deliberate pace of agricultural cycles and the persistence of local industry that has long defined the Wyoming Valley. While the proximity of Buttermilk Falls, eight miles away, draws occasional visitors to witness the sudden, vertical energy of the water, the daily life of Linwood remains focused on the endurance of its modest infrastructure and the steady stewardship of its surrounding acreage. The economy here is one of quiet utility, tethered to the land and the maintenance of the pathways that connect these scattered plots. In the late autumn, when the air turns sharp and the harvest is brought in, there is a particular, austere beauty in the way the frost settles over the fields, revealing the underlying architecture of a place that values function and the quiet continuity of its own history.

About This Linwood Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Linwood, New York. Coordinates: 42.894784, -77.949175. 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 Linwood includes the ZIP code (14486), telephone area code (585), county seat of Livingston County (Geneseo), and school district assignment (Pavilion Central School District).

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.
