How to Use This Norfolk, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Norfolk, 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 Norfolk.
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 Norfolk, New York
Norfolk is a locality in St. Lawrence County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,238. The population density is 176.8 people per km². Norfolk is located at 44.7886°N, 74.9880°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 13667.Norfolk occupies a flat, expansive stretch of northern land where the Raquette River carves a deliberate path through the terrain. It lies 9.1 miles north of Potsdam, NY (from Potsdam, NY: bearing 357°T), and is situated 6.8 miles south of Louisville. The landscape is defined by this persistent waterway, which draws a dark, glassy line through the fields and woodlands that define the horizon. To the south, the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Adirondack Mountains suggest a rugged interior, though the immediate surroundings remain dominated by the quiet, orderly spread of the Saint Lawrence State Forest Number 15. The quality of light here during the late afternoon is thin and brittle, turning the tall grasses a pale, straw yellow as the shadows of the trees stretch toward the riverbanks. Within the Town Of Norfolk Land, the earth feels solid and unpretentious, holding a stillness that is only broken by the occasional shift of wind through the dense stands of timber.
Norfolk grew from the ambition of those who recognized the utility of the Raquette River, harnessing its flow to power the industries that once anchored the local economy. Paper mills and manufacturing enterprises historically dictated the rhythm of daily life, drawing families to the water’s edge to build a livelihood from the timber and the current. While the industrial pace has shifted over the decades, the character of the place remains tied to this legacy of labor and the steady, reliable presence of the river. Residents move through their days with a pragmatic focus, often looking toward the regional centers for commerce or higher education, yet maintaining a distinct independence born of this rural geography. In the quiet evenings, the air carries a crisp, clean scent, a reminder that the wilder reaches of the state are never far, even as the lights of the houses flicker on against the deepening gray of the northern sky.

About This Norfolk Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Norfolk, New York. Coordinates: 44.788637, -74.988027. 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 Norfolk includes the ZIP code (13667), telephone area code (315), county seat of St. Lawrence County (Canton), and school district assignment (Norwood-Norfolk 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.
