How to Use This West Union, New York Map

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

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.

West Union emerges from the high, inland plateau as a landscape defined by the deliberate pace of agriculture and the persistent, quiet work of the seasons. It lies 34.5 miles west of Corning, NY (from Corning, NY: bearing 265°T), and is situated 16.4 miles south-southwest of Hornell. Marsh Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the heavy clay soil, its waters providing a consistent, rhythmic pulse to the surrounding fields and pastures. To the north, the terrain rises into expansive, open meadows that catch the low-slung light of late autumn, casting long, violet shadows across the stubble of harvested grain. The horizon remains wide and uncluttered, though the distant, blurred silhouette of Bow Ridge marks the edge of the world, reminding the observer of the vast, terrestrial reach of the interior.

West Union maintains a character forged by generations of families who have tied their livelihoods to the productivity of the earth and the careful management of timber. The economy remains rooted in the cycles of the harvest and the maintenance of the land, with the nearby West Union Town of Land serving as a quiet preserve for the local flora and fauna. Residents often look toward Quig Hollow as a natural drainage for the persistent spring rains, a place where the air holds a distinct, damp clarity that lingers long after the sun has climbed above the trees. Life here moves in accordance with the weather, a steady, unadorned existence that finds its beauty in the straightforward utility of a well-tended fence line or the stark, gray silence of a winter morning.

About This West Union Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of West Union, New York. Coordinates: 42.095069, -77.725548. 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 West Union includes the ZIP code (14806, 14801), telephone area code (607), county seat of Steuben County (Bath), 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.
