How to Use This Philadelphia, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Philadelphia, 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 Philadelphia.
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 Philadelphia, New York
Philadelphia is a locality in Jefferson County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,098. The population density is 442.5 people per km². Philadelphia is located at 44.1545°N, 75.7088°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Philadelphia is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 13673.Philadelphia marks the landscape with a quiet, persistent grace, defined by the winding course of the Indian River that traces its path through the terrain. It lies 8.7 miles north-northeast of Fort Drum, NY (from Fort Drum, NY: bearing 30°T), and is situated 16.0 miles northeast of Watertown. The surrounding countryside unfolds in a series of subtle elevations, leading the eye toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Adirondack Mountains that anchor the northern horizon. Within the immediate vicinity, the earth gives way to the expansive, level stretches of the Pine Plains, which provide a stark, open contrast to the dense, verdant cover found within the Philadelphia Village of Land. As the afternoon light shifts, it casts long, amber shadows across the fields, lending the rural expanse a sense of permanence that feels both ancient and entirely present.
Philadelphia maintains a character forged by the steady rhythms of agricultural life and the quiet persistence of its inhabitants. The local economy remains deeply rooted in the land, drawing sustenance from the fertile soil that has supported generations of families who cultivate these plains. Beyond the daily labor of the fields, the area retains a distinct atmosphere of isolation, far removed from the frantic pace of larger urban centers. While Millsite Lake rests ten miles away, it serves as a distant, glassy anchor for those seeking a respite from the routines of the village. Life here is measured not by the clock, but by the changing seasons and the slow, deliberate turn of the work year, preserving a way of existence that values the integrity of the harvest and the stillness of the northern air.

About This Philadelphia Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Philadelphia, New York. Coordinates: 44.154504, -75.708824. 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 Philadelphia includes the ZIP code (13673), telephone area code (315), county seat of Jefferson County (Watertown), and school district assignment (Indian River 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.
