How to Use This Colonial Park, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Colonial Park, Pennsylvania

Colonial Park is a locality in Northumberland County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of 16,243. The population density is 1243.8 people per km². Colonial Park is located at 40.2987°N, 76.8070°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 17847, 17109.

Colonial Park occupies a quiet stretch of land where the horizon is defined by the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains. It lies 18.4 miles south-southeast of Williamsport, PA (from Williamsport, PA: bearing 153°T), and is situated 0.7 miles southeast of Milton. The air here carries the dry, earthen scent of inland soil, cooling rapidly as the sun retreats behind the low ridges that guard the perimeter of the landscape. Nearby, the banks of Limestone Run provide a slow, steady pulse to the terrain, its waters carving a modest path through the geology of the region. Even in the height of summer, the light holds a particular clarity, catching the edges of the fields and illuminating the subtle, undulating topography that separates this place from the deeper, more rugged wilderness of the Tiadaghton State Forest.

Colonial Park serves as a pragmatic center for those who prefer the steady, predictable rhythm of a suburban life built upon the foundations of local commerce and residential growth. The history of the area is etched into the grid of its streets, which have expanded outward to meet the needs of a workforce connected to the broader regional economy. Residents often gather at Brown Avenue Park and Community Pool, a space that defines the social character of the neighborhood during the humid, golden hours of the late afternoon. While the distant Buffalo Valley offers a vast, open perspective, the daily experience in Colonial Park remains anchored in the familiar, where the sound of children playing at the local park marks the passing of the day as reliably as the shifting shadows on the pavement.

About This Colonial Park Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Colonial Park, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.298695, -76.806994. 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 Colonial Park includes the ZIP code (17847, 17109), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Northumberland County (Sunbury), and school district assignment (Central Dauphin School District).

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.
