How to Use This Madison, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Madison, 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 Madison.
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 Madison, New York
Madison is a locality in Madison County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 311. The population density is 251.7 people per km². Madison is located at 42.8990°N, 75.5121°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Madison is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 13402.Madison exists as a quiet accumulation of pastures and timbered ridges, defined by the steady, light-refracting surface of Madison Lake that anchors the center of the landscape. It lies 14.0 miles south-southwest of Kirkland, NY (from Kirkland, NY: bearing 208°T), and is situated 8.3 miles southwest of Hanover. The earth here holds a certain heaviness, a rich clay soil that sustains the deep greens of the surrounding fields and the dense, shadowed canopy of the nearby County Forest. To the west, the land dips toward the low, hidden quietude of Tinker Hollow, while the rhythmic, cold flow of Oriskany Creek carves a path through the terrain just a short distance away. When the sun begins its descent, the light catches the moisture rising from the fields, casting a pale, bruised violet over the horizon that makes the distant Appalachian Mountains appear as mere ink-smudges against the darkening sky.
Madison traces its roots to the deliberate labor of early settlers who recognized the utility of the creek and the fertile potential of the soil, long before the modern pace of commerce settled into its current, modest rhythm. Agriculture remains the quiet pulse of the local economy, with family-owned farms and sprawling fields forming the primary industry that sustains the regional character. Visitors occasionally pause to admire the cascading water at Stockbridge Falls, a place where the water’s persistent friction against the stone creates a sound that has remained unchanged for generations. Life in Madison moves with a deliberate, unforced consistency, measured by the changing seasons and the slow, seasonal transition of the crops that define the working life of those who remain here.

About This Madison Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Madison, New York. Coordinates: 42.898958, -75.512122. 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 Madison includes the ZIP code (13402), telephone area code (315), county seat of Madison County (Wampsville), and school district assignment (Madison 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.
