Explore Rexford, 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 Rexford, 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 Rexford.
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.

Rexford maintains a quiet posture along the banks where the Mohawk River carves a deliberate path through the landscape. It lies 3.5 miles southeast of East Glenville, NY (from East Glenville, NY: bearing 145°T), and is situated 3.8 miles northeast of Schenectady. Sunlight catches the surface of the water, turning the current into a ribbon of hammered silver that divides the banks with a steady, enduring grace. Beyond the immediate river corridor, the terrain rises into modest, wooded elevations that hold the morning mist until well past dawn. The surrounding environment remains deeply influenced by the presence of New York State Lands, where the dense canopy provides a sanctuary for local flora and a cooling shade that defines the texture of a summer afternoon. Five miles to the south, the orientation of the land shifts toward the lower reaches of Pleasant Valley, creating a sense of openness that contrasts with the sheltered, quiet corners of the river’s edge.
Rexford preserves a character shaped by the legacy of early canal-era transit and the steady, evolving pace of modern inland life. While the influence of the nearby Appalachian Mountains remains a distant, hazy silhouette against the western horizon, the local economy has transitioned from its historical reliance on waterborne commerce to a focus on suburban residential life and regional connectivity. Residents often look toward the nearby waters of Ballston Lake for recreation, a short distance that underscores the proximity of quiet, reflective spaces within the broader regional geography. The rhythm of daily existence here is marked by the passage of trains and the changing colors of the deciduous trees, reflecting a settled, deliberate atmosphere that values the persistence of the landscape over the rapid shifts of urban centers.

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.
