How to Use This Belltown, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Belltown, Pennsylvania

Belltown is a locality in Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, United States. Belltown is located at 40.7129°N, 77.4167°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 15860, 17841, 16313.

Belltown occupies a quiet stretch of land where the water of Belltown Run moves with a steady, deliberate pace through the lower elevation. It lies 23.9 miles east-southeast of State College, PA (from State College, PA: bearing 103°T), and is situated 11.3 miles northeast of Lewistown. The landscape here is defined by the broader contours of the region, where the earth tilts toward the distant Appalachian Mountains that sharpen the horizon in shades of bruised violet and slate. Only a mile away, the expansive grounds of Bald Eagle State Forest offer a dense canopy of hardwoods that seem to hold the heat of the afternoon long after the sun has begun to dip. To the west, the topography softens into the open expanse of Pleasant Valley, creating a pastoral corridor where the light at dusk settles in thin, golden layers over the fields. The air carries the scent of damp loam and cooling stone, a reminder that the land is far removed from the churn of the coast, existing instead in a space governed by the slow transition of seasons.

Belltown maintains a rhythm dictated by the legacy of its interior geography, where the economy has long been tethered to the harvest of the woods and the cultivation of the surrounding soil. While the proximity to Bald Eagle State Forest provides a permanent border of wild growth, the local character remains anchored in the labor of those who know the cycle of the earth and the maintenance of the Peters Trail. Life in Belltown moves with a predictable gravity, marked by the sound of trucks on blacktop and the seasonal shifts in the foliage that define the view toward the higher ridges. Residents often look toward Big Flat for a change in scenery, yet the daily pulse of the place remains centered on the modest architecture and the clear, cold movement of Belltown Run. It is a place that does not clamor for attention, preferring the quiet persistence of a landscape that has remained largely unchanged by the haste of the modern world.

About This Belltown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Belltown, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.71285, -77.416659. 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 Belltown includes the ZIP code (15860, 17841, 16313), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Mifflin County (Lewistown), 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.
