Explore Ontario, 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 Ontario, 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 Ontario.
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.

Ontario maintains a steadfast presence along the southern shore of Lake Ontario, where the horizon broadens into a vast, shimmering expanse of fresh water. It lies 4.0 miles northeast of Lincoln, NY (from Lincoln, NY: bearing 50°T), and is situated 7.4 miles east of Webster. Bear Creek carves a subtle path through the local terrain, its waters moving with a quiet purpose toward the larger basin. Ontario occupies a landscape defined by level plains and fertile earth, offering a clear view of the distant Maple Ridge that anchors the southern skyline. Within a mile of the residential center, the Ontario Town Lands provide a protected space where the natural growth of the region continues undisturbed. The air here carries a crisp, lingering coolness, especially during the long months when the influence of the northern lake tempers the changing seasons.
Ontario traces its roots to the early agricultural expansion that transformed the wilderness into productive orchards and expansive fields. The local economy remains deeply connected to this legacy, as the cultivation of apples and other fruit continues to define the rhythm of the harvest season. Generations of families have tended to these tracts of land, building a commerce that relies on the richness of the soil and the stability of the climate. Small-scale manufacturing and service industries have since grown alongside the traditional farms, creating a varied economic base for the residents. Ontario keeps a steady pace, reflecting a history of labor that values the tangible results of a hard day's work.
Cultural life in Ontario reflects the quiet endurance of a place that finds satisfaction in its own steady development. The Ontario Town Lands serve as a central point for those seeking a connection to the local environment, offering trails that invite a slow, observant walk through the woods. While the pace of life remains unhurried, the community gathers for seasonal events that celebrate the bounty of the local orchards and the shared identity of the residents. Famous figures such as the notable author and educator John Gardner once spent time in the broader region, leaving a mark on the intellectual landscape of upstate New York. Ontario persists as a place of deliberate living, where the quietude of the surroundings encourages a focus on the essential aspects of daily existence.

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.
