How to Use This South Salem, New York Map

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

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 Salem, New York

South Salem is a locality in Westchester County, New York, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,400. The population density is 55.0 people per km². South Salem is located at 41.2723°N, 73.5529°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 10590.

South Salem reveals its character through the slow, deliberate movement of the Cross River as it carves a path through the dense, verdant terrain. It lies 2.8 miles north-northwest of Lewisboro, NY (from Lewisboro, NY: bearing 326°T), and is situated 9.9 miles south-southwest of Danbury. The landscape is defined by the intimate contours of Deer Hollow, where the shadows grow long and cool against the earth as the sun retreats behind the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains. Truesdale Lake anchors the immediate surroundings, its surface often catching the bruised purple light of an approaching evening, creating a stillness that feels heavy with the scent of damp soil and ancient stone. Here, the land does not rise in dramatic peaks but instead folds into itself, demanding that a traveler pause to notice the way the light catches the silver-backed leaves in the humid, inland air.

South Salem preserves a quiet continuity, anchored by the preservation efforts of the nearby TOWN OF LEWISBORO Land, which maintains the integrity of the woods against the encroaching pace of the modern era. The local economy persists as a blend of residential solitude and the quiet industry of those who have long recognized the value of this particular geography, moving away from the clamor of the more dense, southern reaches of the state. Historical markers remain as subtle punctuation marks on the roadside, reminding one of the colonial roots that established these homesteads long before the current sprawl. Daily life here maintains a deliberate, measured cadence, where the rhythm of the seasons—from the deep, iron-gray winters to the thick, humid summers—dictates the habits of those who call South Salem home.

About This South Salem Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of South Salem, New York. Coordinates: 41.272317, -73.552903. 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 Salem includes the ZIP code (10590), telephone area code (914, 845), county seat of Westchester County (White Plains), 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.
