Explore Pompey, 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 Pompey, 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 Pompey.
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.

Pompey occupies a high, expansive plateau where the air thins and cools long before the winter frost settles. It lies 6.9 miles west-northwest of Union, NY (from Union, NY: bearing 288°T), and is situated 7.4 miles south-southwest of Manlius. The landscape of Pompey is defined by vast, open agricultural fields that stretch toward the horizon, punctuated only by the deep, shadowed descent of The Tunnel just two miles away. Cascades Creek carves a quiet path through the terrain, its movement providing a steady, rhythmic pulse to the local ecosystem. Seven miles to the east, the waters of Cazenovia Lake catch the pale, northern light, reflecting the shifting moods of a sky that feels remarkably close to the earth. To the south, the distant Appalachian Mountains appear as a faint, jagged charcoal line against the fading afternoon light, anchoring the view beyond the local horizon.
Settlers arrived in Pompey during the post-revolutionary era, drawn by the promise of fertile soil and the strategic elevation that offered a clear vantage over the surrounding territory. The local economy remains tethered to these agricultural roots, with family-owned farms and sprawling fields forming the primary industry that sustains the regional character. While the pace of life in Pompey is dictated by the seasonal cycle of planting and harvest, a modern industriousness persists in the quiet maintenance of the land and the small-scale businesses that serve its residents. The nearby State Reforestation Area serves as a living legacy of land management, preserving the timber and wild spaces that have defined the region for generations. Onondaga County Land remains a vital public resource, ensuring that the open character of the landscape is protected from the encroachment of suburban density.
A distinct, stoic independence defines the cultural spirit of Pompey, where the residents value a reserved, thoughtful existence over the clamor of more densely populated districts. The landmarks here are modest but enduring, often consisting of historic markers or the simple, stark architecture of barns and farmsteads that have weathered many decades of northern winters. Community gatherings often center on the seasonal changes, reflecting a life that is deeply synchronized with the land. While few figures of global renown claim origin here, the residents maintain a strong sense of place, honoring the quiet dignity of their daily pursuits. Pompey offers a rare stillness, where the absence of artifice allows the natural texture of the seasons to become the most prominent feature of the day.

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.
