How to Use This South Plymouth, New York Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for South Plymouth, 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 South Plymouth.
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 South Plymouth, New York
South Plymouth is a locality in Chenango County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 18.0 people per km². South Plymouth is located at 42.5815°N, 75.5644°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 13815, 13844.South Plymouth occupies a quiet stretch of land defined by the persistent, rhythmic movement of the Canasawacta Creek as it carves through the local topography. It lies 25.7 miles southeast of Union, NY (from Union, NY: bearing 140°T), and is situated 4.0 miles north-northwest of Norwich. Beyond the immediate banks, the terrain rises into the modest, verdant folds of German Hollow, where the light at dusk often hangs heavy and golden, catching the edges of the hardwoods. Only a mile away, the dense, quiet canopy of Pharsalia Woods State Forest offers a vast, unbroken expanse of timber that anchors the horizon. Further afield, the distant silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains provides a faint, hazy boundary against the sky, while the tranquil waters of Plymouth Reservoir sit waiting four miles to the east, holding the reflection of the clouds in a stillness that feels nearly permanent.
South Plymouth persists as a place where the labor of the soil and the legacy of early inland settlement continue to shape the daily pulse of the residents. While the local economy has transitioned from its earlier, more intensive agricultural roots, the land itself remains the primary architect of life here, dictating the patterns of work and the slow, deliberate pace of the seasons. The proximity to the forest and the creek ensures that the rhythm of the day is marked more by the shift of shadows across the fields than by any frantic modern clock. Even with the nearby rush of Rexford Falls eight miles away, the character of South Plymouth remains grounded in a quiet endurance, preserving a sense of isolation that feels both intentional and profoundly rooted in the geography of the interior.

About This South Plymouth Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of South Plymouth, New York. Coordinates: 42.58146, -75.56435. 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 South Plymouth includes the ZIP code (13815, 13844), telephone area code (315), county seat of Chenango County (Norwich), 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.
