Explore Malone, 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 Malone, 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 Malone.
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.

Malone occupies a terrain defined by the steady, persistent passage of the Salmon River, which cuts a cool path through the earth near the heart of the settlement. It lies 29.7 miles east of Massena, NY (from Massena, NY: bearing 100°T), and is situated 13.0 miles east of Moira. The landscape surrounding Malone is characterized by vast, open expanses that eventually give way to the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Adirondack Mountains on the southern horizon. Two miles away, the quiet waters of Lamica Lake offer a stillness that contrasts with the brisk movement of the local streams. Further out, the landscape deepens into the secluded depressions of Hawks Hollow, while the woods of Franklin State Forest Number Three provide a dense, tangled boundary to the north. At dusk, the light here turns a thin, sharp gold, catching the edges of the Town of Malone Land and casting long, precise shadows across the fields.
Malone grew from the labor of early settlers who recognized the potential for utilizing the local waterways to drive the wheels of industry. The economy has historically shifted between the rhythms of agriculture and the output of mills, reflecting a resilience that persists in the quiet industry of the present day. Infrastructure built during earlier eras remains visible in the sturdy brickwork of the central streets, where the weight of past commerce still influences the character of the grid. Today, the local economy continues to adapt, balancing the needs of a regional hub with the slower, more deliberate pace of a place defined by its inland geography. The air in Malone often carries the scent of pine and cooling soil, a reminder of the forests and working lands that underpin the local livelihood.
Cultural life in Malone is marked by a steady, understated pride and a deep familiarity with the changing seasons. The local atmosphere is often punctuated by events that draw residents together in the Town of Malone Land, fostering a sense of continuity that spans generations. Notable figures such as the author Laura Ingalls Wilder, who spent a portion of her childhood in the vicinity, left an enduring mark on the local identity. Landmarks throughout the streets serve as quiet witnesses to this history, anchoring the modern experience of the place to the stories of those who inhabited it long ago. Malone remains a quiet intersection of northern tradition and daily persistence, where the winter chill serves as a common language for everyone who calls it home.

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.
