How to Use This Whitesville, New York Map

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

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 Whitesville, New York

Whitesville is a locality in Allegany County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 620. The population density is 120.0 people per km². Whitesville is located at 42.0378°N, 77.7625°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 14897.

Whitesville occupies a quiet basin defined by the steady, rhythmic passage of Spring Mills Creek, which carves a path through the landscape with persistent, unassuming purpose. It lies 34.3 miles east of Olean, NY (from Olean, NY: bearing 94°T), and is situated 11.2 miles east-southeast of Wellsville. The land here rises into broad, verdant elevations that shield the valley floor, creating a sense of containment against the wider world. To the horizon, the distant silhouettes of Bow Ridge suggest a rugged boundary, while the immediate surroundings offer the open, accessible terrain of the Town Of Independence Land. The atmosphere in Whitesville carries a distinct clarity, particularly as the low-hanging afternoon sun catches the moisture of the creek, casting long, amber shadows across the fields that seem to hold the stillness of the afternoon in suspension.

The local economy finds its roots in the stubborn vitality of the soil, with agricultural traditions forming the bedrock of the daily cycle. History here is marked by the patient clearing of timber and the slow, deliberate cultivation of the land, a process that has long relied on the proximity of the Susquehannock State Forest for resources and shade. Life moves with an unpretentious cadence, far removed from the frantic pace of denser regions, finding its primary recreation in the woods and the nearby terrain of Christian Hollow. Even when the winter frost deepens and the distant surface of Andover Pond turns to ice, the people of Whitesville maintain a steady continuity, tethered to a landscape that demands both labor and a deep, quiet respect for the changing seasons.

About This Whitesville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Whitesville, New York. Coordinates: 42.037846, -77.762494. 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 Whitesville includes the ZIP code (14897), telephone area code (607), county seat of Allegany County (Belmont), 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.
