How to Use This Bovard, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Bovard asserts itself as a quiet intersection of topography and industry, defined by the steady, unassuming contours of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 2.3 miles northeast of Greensburg, PA (from Greensburg, PA: bearing 56°T), and is situated 5.9 miles east of Jeannette. The landscape surrounding Bovard holds a heavy, earthen stillness, where the horizon is defined by the distant, hazy blue outlines of the Allegheny Mountains. Water carves through the terrain in modest measures, with Jacks Run winding through the local geography just a mile away, mirroring the quiet persistence of the nearby Twin Lakes Number One Reservoir. The land here feels anchored and substantial, characterized by the deep, verdant growth of the Dillon Tract Acquisition, which provides a sprawling buffer of woodland that softens the edges of the surrounding developments. In the low light of late afternoon, the shadows stretch long and thin across the soil of Coal Hollow, imbuing the ground with a somber, muted luster that speaks to the weight of the earth beneath.

Industry once defined the pulse of Bovard, leaving behind a legacy of coal and grit that shaped the very temperament of the local inhabitants. The economy has long since shifted away from the frantic pace of the mines, yet the rhythm of daily life retains a deliberate, pragmatic character forged by generations who understood the necessity of hard labor. The architecture of the region reflects this transition, with sturdy, utilitarian homes standing as quiet monuments to a time when the extraction of resources dictated the flow of commerce. Today, the pace is dictated by the slow seasonal changes of the plateau, where the air grows crisp with the scent of damp leaves and cooling soil. Life in Bovard persists with a grounded, unpretentious clarity, favoring the reliability of a long-standing routine over the ephemeral trends of more frantic, modern corridors.

About This Bovard Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Bovard, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.073673, -79.971722. 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 Bovard includes the ZIP code (16020, 15619), 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.
