How to Use This Acme, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Acme, Pennsylvania

Acme is a locality in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 680. The population density is 18.0 people per km². Acme is located at 40.1267°N, 79.4286°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 15610.

Acme endures as a quiet convergence of topography where the persistent flow of Jacobs Creek carves a path through the landscape. It lies 13.4 miles south-southeast of Greensburg, PA (from Greensburg, PA: bearing 154°T), and is situated 6.1 miles east-southeast of Mount Pleasant Westmoreland County. The terrain surrounding Acme unfolds in a series of deliberate slopes and sheltered depressions, defined by the proximity of Chestnut Ridge Park, which provides an immediate, verdant boundary to the local horizon. The air here holds a distinct, heavy clarity, particularly as the light shifts toward evening, casting long shadows across the broken, uneven ground that characterizes this part of the Allegheny Plateau. Only a short distance away, the quiet surface of Forest Lake mirrors the sky, serving as a silent anchor in a region otherwise defined by the steady, unyielding movement of water through the soil and the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains far to the east.

Industry in Acme has long been tethered to the rhythmic demands of the land and the extraction of its subterranean wealth, a legacy that lingers in the weathered architecture and the deliberate, measured pace of the local inhabitants. While the economy has shifted away from the intensive labor of the past, the influence of the region’s history remains visible in the way buildings are constructed to withstand the damp, temperate winters and the persistent humidity of the valley floors. Residents often look toward the deeper, more secluded reaches of Possum Hollow or the vast, managed stretches of Forbes State Forest to find a sense of continuity that defines their daily lives. Life in Acme exists in the spaces between these landmarks, where the work of the day is punctuated by the sound of the creek and the seasonal transition of the woods, creating a persistent, grounded sense of place that remains largely indifferent to the frantic speed of the world beyond the ridge.

About This Acme Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Acme, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.126739, -79.428647. 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 Acme includes the ZIP code (15610), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Westmoreland County (Greensburg), 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.
