How to Use This Sand Ridge, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Sand Ridge, 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 Sand Ridge.
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 Sand Ridge, New York
Sand Ridge is a locality in Oswego County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 992. The population density is 141.4 people per km². Sand Ridge is located at 43.2555°N, 76.2302°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 14004, 13132.Sand Ridge occupies a quiet expanse of land where the horizon is defined by the soft, muted colors of a northern temperate climate. It lies 5.6 miles north-northwest of Clay, NY (from Clay, NY: bearing 329°T), and is situated 7.9 miles northwest of Cicero. The landscape here is defined by a low, sandy elevation that rises gently above the surrounding marshy lowlands, providing a clear vantage point toward the nearby waters of Pleasant Lake. Moisture hangs heavy in the air near the banks of the Oneida River, where the earth remains damp and rich, supporting a dense growth of reeds and hardwoods that filter the afternoon light into long, golden slivers. In the distance, the faint, jagged silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains occasionally marks the edge of the sky, serving as a reminder of the vast, shifting geography that stretches far beyond the quiet perimeter of Sand Ridge.
Economic activity in Sand Ridge has long been tethered to the water, with residents drawing their sustenance and industry from the interconnected channels that flow toward the distant coast. Boats moored at the Winter Harbor Marina suggest a persistent, if modest, maritime heritage, while the nearby Village Of Phoenix Land offers a preserved space for the local flora and fauna to thrive undisturbed by industrial sprawl. The ground near Beaver Meadow remains a testament to the ancient, sedimentary history of the region, where the soil holds the memory of glacial retreat and the slow, persistent work of local currents. Life here follows the unhurried cadence of the seasons, moving between the frozen silence of the winter months and the humid, verdant intensity of summer, when the proximity to the water dictates the rhythm of every household.

About This Sand Ridge Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sand Ridge, New York. Coordinates: 43.255532, -76.230166. 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 Sand Ridge includes the ZIP code (14004, 13132), telephone area code (716, 315), county seat of Oswego County (Oswego), and school district assignment (Phoenix 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.
