How to Use This Lorraine, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lorraine, 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 Lorraine.
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 Lorraine, New York
Lorraine is a locality in Jefferson County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 139. The population density is 109.5 people per km². Lorraine is located at 43.7665°N, 75.9594°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 13659.Lorraine emerges from a landscape defined by the persistent, rhythmic cutting of Big Brook, which carves a modest path through the dense, verdant earth. It lies 14.6 miles south of Watertown, NY (from Watertown, NY: bearing 190°T), and is situated 14.3 miles north-northeast of Richland. The terrain surrounding Lorraine maintains a quiet, rigorous character, marked by the deep shadows of the nearby Winona State Forest and the sudden, dramatic depression of Towle Gulf. In the late autumn, the light turns a brittle, pale gold, illuminating the frost-dusted grasses that cling to the uneven ground. Far to the east, the silhouette of the Adirondack Mountains anchors the horizon, offering a jagged, distant boundary to the expansive, quiet fields that define the local topography.
Agriculture remains the silent pulse of Lorraine, where the labor of the seasons dictates the pace of life far more than the ticking of any clock. Historic farmsteads stand as austere markers of an economy built upon the stubborn vitality of the soil, reflecting a legacy of resilience in a region prone to heavy winter snows. While the quietude of the land seems absolute, the proximity to the wilderness of Winona State Forest ensures that the natural world is never merely a backdrop, but a constant participant in the daily existence of those who work the land. Life here moves with the gravity of the seasons, a steady and deliberate progression that persists long after the distant echoes of more populated centers have faded into the stillness of the woods.

About This Lorraine Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lorraine, New York. Coordinates: 43.766456, -75.959364. 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 Lorraine includes the ZIP code (13659), telephone area code (315), county seat of Jefferson County (Watertown), and school district assignment (South Jefferson 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.
