How to Use This Perth, New York Map

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

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 Perth, New York

Perth is a locality in Fulton County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,600. The population density is 35.0 people per km². Perth is located at 43.0176°N, 74.1940°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12010.

Perth anchors itself amidst a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the Healy Kill as it carves a path through the earth. It lies 5.5 miles north of Amsterdam, NY (from Amsterdam, NY: bearing 357°T), and is situated 9.4 miles northwest of Glenville. The terrain moves in long, slow swells of pasture and woodland, where the light at dusk flattens against the fields to turn the dried grasses into a pale, burnished bronze. Residents often walk the trails of the Perth Town Lands, where the silence is broken only by the shifting of leaves or the sharp, distant call of a hawk circling above the canopy. To the north, the distant blue outlines of the Adirondack Mountains suggest a ruggedness that contrasts with the softer, more manageable slopes found closer to home, while the shadows in Hell Hollow deepen early, holding the chill of the afternoon long after the sun has retreated.

Agriculture and a steady, modest commerce have long provided the rhythm of life in Perth, keeping the pace of the days tethered to the changing seasons rather than the frantic pulse of the outside world. The proximity to the Kellogg Reservoir offers a reliable mirror for the sky, its surface often glassy and undisturbed as the morning mist lifts to reveal the quiet labor of the local farms. While the legacy of early settlement remains visible in the sturdy foundations of older structures, the economy today relies on a mix of local enterprise and the quiet resolve of those who prefer the solitude of inland life. Occasionally, those seeking a more dramatic spectacle of nature venture toward Buttermilk Falls, yet the true character of the locality is found in the everyday, unvarnished grace of a landscape that asks for nothing and offers a profound sense of permanence.

About This Perth Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Perth, New York. Coordinates: 43.017574, -74.19402. 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 Perth includes the ZIP code (12010), telephone area code (518), county seat of Fulton County (Johnstown), 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.
