Explore Wirt, New York, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Wirt, 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 Wirt.
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.

Wirt occupies a quiet expanse of high-plateau terrain where the landscape yields to the persistent, slow-motion gravity of the Allegheny foothills. It lies 14.8 miles east-northeast of Olean, NY (from Olean, NY: bearing 74°T), and is situated 10.4 miles west of Wellsville. The elevation rises toward the modest, rounded prominence of Jordan Hill, while the earth itself is defined by the sharp, verdant incisions of Pleasant Valley. Below the ridges, Little Genesee Creek traces a thin, silver line through the soil, carving its path with a patience that outlasts the seasons. During the autumn months, the air turns crisp and brittle, carrying a scent of damp shale and cooling timber that settles into the hollows before the frost arrives to silence the fields.
Wirt preserves a legacy tethered to the rhythmic cycles of rural industry, where the legacy of early oil exploration left a quiet, subterranean mark upon the local economy. Though the frantic pulse of the boom years has long since faded into the background, the character of the region remains grounded in the steady labor of agriculture and the maintenance of a landscape that feels perpetually expectant. Residents often look toward the nearby Village Of Richburg Land for a sense of public connection, or find their way toward the broader, stiller waters of Cuba Lake when the summer heat lingers. Life here unfolds with a deliberate, unadorned clarity, sustained by the persistence of those who choose to inhabit a place where the horizon is measured not by monuments, but by the quiet endurance of the woods and the shifting, pale light of the upstate sky.

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.
