How to Use This Roxbury, New York Map

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

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 Roxbury, New York

Roxbury is a locality in Delaware County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,400. The population density is 18.0 people per km². Roxbury is located at 40.5665°N, 73.8907°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 11697, 12474.

Roxbury claims a quiet stretch of earth where the East Branch Delaware River carves a deliberate, winding path through the landscape. It lies 20.6 miles west-northwest of Edgewood, NY (from Edgewood, NY: bearing 299°T), and is situated 18.0 miles east of Delhi. The air here holds a crisp, thin clarity, often carrying the sound of water moving over stones before it slips into the deepening shadows of Montgomery Hollow. To the south, the Catskill Mountains rise as a jagged, blue-tinted silhouette against the horizon, providing a rugged backdrop to the Town of Roxbury Land where the forest floor thickens with hemlock and maple. Those seeking the movement of water often find their way to Straton Falls, where the current drops into a basin of cool, dark stone, or travel five miles out to the stillness of Wawaka Lake, where the surface reflects the changing colors of the sky with a mirror-like precision.

Roxbury carries the weight of a long agricultural legacy, its valleys once defined by the labor of small-scale farms and the steady, rhythmic output of timber and dairy production. The local economy has shifted over generations, moving from the extraction of natural resources toward a stewardship of the land that favors preservation and the quiet hospitality of the inland highlands. Architectural remnants of its industrious past remain in the sturdy, deliberate construction of its older buildings, which stand as markers of a time when the rhythm of life was dictated by the harvest and the seasonal freeze. Even as the pace of the modern world encroaches, Roxbury maintains an internal focus, anchoring itself to the steady flow of the river and the permanence of the surrounding ridges.

About This Roxbury Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Roxbury, New York. Coordinates: 40.566494, -73.890692. 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 Roxbury includes the ZIP code (11697, 12474), telephone area code (516, 845), county seat of Delaware County (Delhi), 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.
