How to Use This Richland, New York Map

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

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.

Richland reveals its character through the quiet, persistent flow of Spring Brook, which carves a path directly through the landscape. It lies 24.5 miles east-northeast of Oswego, NY (from Oswego, NY: bearing 71°T), and is situated 4.0 miles east of Pulaski. The surrounding terrain offers a serene expanse of woodlands and open fields that define the immediate horizon, while the distant Appalachian Mountains provide a faint, hazy silhouette against the sky. Travelers seeking the water’s edge can find the tranquil waters of Renshaw Bay just eleven miles away, offering a maritime atmosphere that contrasts with the inland stillness. Closer to home, Gowdy Pond serves as a quiet sanctuary for those who prefer the stillness of a smaller, sheltered basin. The Town of Richland Land provides a dedicated space for the community to engage with the natural environment, ensuring that the local ecology remains a central part of daily life.

Richland began as a rugged frontier settlement where the labor of early inhabitants focused on the timber and agricultural potential of the soil. The local economy has evolved from these foundational roots to support a mix of small-scale industry and regional trade that sustains the modern workforce. Residents maintain a practical, industrious pace of life, often balancing seasonal demands with the quiet requirements of maintaining homesteads and local infrastructure. The proximity to vital waterways and fertile land allowed early generations to establish a durable presence in a climate defined by heavy snows and crisp, clear air. Today, the economic vitality of Richland remains tethered to this legacy of resourcefulness, where the labor of the hands is still held in high regard.

Richland fosters a cultural atmosphere defined by its dedication to the preservation of local traditions and the appreciation of its natural landmarks. Visitors often make the journey to witness the power of Salmon River Falls, where the cascading water creates a thunderous, rhythmic sound that echoes through the gorge. The presence of Hall Island in the nearby waters adds a layer of mystery to the landscape, serving as a landmark for those who explore the local geography. Community gatherings often center on the seasonal cycles of the region, reflecting a way of life that prizes consistency and neighborly bonds over the frenetic energy of larger urban centers. While Richland remains a modest place, it possesses a quiet dignity found in the way its people observe the changing light as dusk settles over the fields. Those who walk the trails or visit the local sites find that Richland holds a distinct, unpretentious charm that rewards the patient observer.

About This Richland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Richland, New York. Coordinates: 43.569514, -76.0477. 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 Richland includes the ZIP code (13144), telephone area code (315), county seat of Oswego County (Oswego), 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.
