How to Use This Yates, New York Map

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

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 Yates, New York

Yates is a locality in Yates County, New York, United States. It is a small community with a population of 290. The population density is 18.0 people per km². Yates is located at 42.6431°N, 77.1485°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 14527, 14098.

Yates anchors itself upon a landscape defined by the persistent, rhythmic cutting of Sugar Creek, which carves a path through the earth less than a mile from the center of the locality. It lies 17.5 miles south-southeast of Canandaigua, NY (from Canandaigua, NY: bearing 156°T), and is situated 5.0 miles west-southwest of Penn Yan. The terrain here rises and falls in long, deliberate swells, revealing the deep, shadowed contours of Big Gully just a mile away. The light in this part of the state has a heavy, amber quality as it filters through the canopy of distant trees, casting long, thin silhouettes across the fields during the late afternoon. While the distant, jagged peaks of the Appalachian Mountains remain only a suggestion of blue on the far horizon, the immediate ground is dominated by the quiet, inland solidity of the plateau, where the soil holds the damp chill of the morning long after the sun has climbed high.

Yates persists as a place where the economy remains tethered to the slow cycles of the land, drawing sustenance from the fertile ground that has supported generations of inhabitants. Nearby, the blue surface of Keuka Lake offers a wide, calm expanse just three miles away, providing a stark contrast to the dense, wooded seclusion of the Green Mountain National Forest-Hector Ranger District further afield. Local life follows a quiet, measured pace, often punctuated by a walk toward the Penn Yan Municipal Land to observe the changing seasons. The history of the area is written not in grand monuments, but in the enduring wooden barns and the steady, unpretentious industry of those who work the fields. Even as the modern world shifts, Yates retains a grounded character, marked by the simple, constant presence of the water and the seasonal transition of the crops.

About This Yates Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Yates, New York. Coordinates: 42.643085, -77.148516. 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 Yates includes the ZIP code (14527, 14098), telephone area code (585, 716), county seat of Yates County (Penn Yan), 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.
