How to Use This Richburg, New York Map

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

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.

Richburg emerges from the landscape where the steady, rhythmic flow of Little Genesee Creek carves a path through the earth, marking the pulse of the valley. It lies 14.2 miles east of Olean, NY (from Olean, NY: bearing 87°T), and is situated 10.8 miles west-southwest of Wellsville. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain rises toward the slopes of Richburg Hill, a silent sentinel that watches over the modest, quiet expanses of the Village Of Richburg Land. Sunlight catches the moisture in the air here, turning the late afternoon into a hazy, muted gold that settles over the low-lying ground of Pleasant Valley. The atmosphere holds a stillness born of long, cold winters, where the land seems to pull inward, concentrating its energy beneath a sky that shifts from bruised iron to a pale, clear violet at dusk.

History in Richburg remains tethered to the subterranean wealth that once drew prospectors and laborers to these woods, leaving behind a legacy of industry that has since receded into the quietude of rural life. The local economy no longer echoes with the clamor of the oil boom that defined its earlier chapters, leaving the residents to cultivate a life defined by the seasonal cycles of the surrounding woodlands. While the bustling commerce of larger hubs remains distant, the pace of life here is dictated by the maintenance of homesteads and the slow, deliberate turn of the year. Thirteen miles away, the waters of Cuba Lake reflect the changing seasons, providing a distant, tranquil counterpoint to the persistent, grounded reality of the life lived daily within the village borders.

About This Richburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Richburg, New York. Coordinates: 42.0884, -78.153343. 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 Richburg includes the ZIP code (14774, 14715), telephone area code (607), county seat of Allegany County (Belmont), and school district assignment (Bolivar-Richburg 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.
