How to Use This Pekin, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Pekin, 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 Pekin.

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 Pekin, New York

Pekin is a locality in Oswego County, New York, United States. Pekin is located at 43.5467°N, 75.9646°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 13144, 14130.

Pekin emerges from the landscape as a quiet intersection of earth and water, defined by the persistent, winding path of Pekin Brook. It lies 26.8 miles north-northeast of Cicero, NY (from Cicero, NY: bearing 17°T), and is situated 4.4 miles east-southeast of Richland. The terrain here is marked by a deep, inland stillness, where the low-slung woods and verdant plains stretch out under a sky that seems to hold the light longer than the heavy, distant silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains ever could. A mile away, the surface of Gowdy Pond mirrors the shifting canopy, providing a stillness that complements the nearby rush of Salmon River Falls. The air carries the scent of damp soil and ancient timber, a grounding presence that suggests a land shaped more by the steady, patient work of rain and runoff than by the frantic pace of the outside world.

Pekin retains a character forged in the deliberate, seasonal rhythms of agriculture and small-scale trade that have long defined the life of these interior tracts. The local economy persists in a steady pulse, drawing vitality from the proximity of the Lower Salmon River State Forest, which preserves the wilder edges of the land against the encroachment of modern industry. Residents walk paths that have been worn smooth by generations, moving between the modest homes and the surrounding fields with a familiarity that ignores the transient nature of the wider state. When the evening settles, the shadows lengthen across the meadows, and the hum of the brook remains the only constant, marking the passage of time in a place that prefers to keep its own counsel.

About This Pekin Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pekin, New York. Coordinates: 43.546737, -75.964641. 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 Pekin includes the ZIP code (13144, 14130), telephone area code (315, 716), county seat of Oswego County (Oswego), and school district assignment.

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.
