How to Use This Crenshaw, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Crenshaw, Pennsylvania

Crenshaw is a locality in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 423. The population density is 149.2 people per km². Crenshaw is located at 41.2487°N, 78.7620°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 15824, 15823.

Crenshaw occupies a stretch of Pennsylvania terrain where the land rises and falls in long, rhythmic folds of earth and hardwood. It lies 16.2 miles southwest of Saint Marys, PA (from Saint Marys, PA: bearing 220°T), and is situated 8.9 miles north of Du Bois. Walburn Run cuts a path through the low ground here, its waters carving a quiet, persistent channel through the soil before the landscape eventually climbs toward the distant silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains. The air in Crenshaw holds a particular sharpness, especially when the afternoon light catches the amber hues of the trees, turning the woods into a display of copper and bronze. Residents often gather at the Brockway Youth Soccer Fields, a space that defines the local pace of life as much as the stillness of the nearby fields, while the deeper shadows of Elk State Forest wait only a short distance away to reclaim the horizon.

Crenshaw grew from the industrial pulse of the region, carrying the quiet gravity of a place that once looked to the earth beneath its feet for purpose and sustenance. While the economy has shifted away from the heavy labor of previous decades, the character of the people remains tied to the resilient spirit of the Pennsylvania plateau. Those seeking a longer path through the wilderness often look toward the Indian Rock Trail, situated miles away, yet the daily rhythm of life in Crenshaw is measured by the local lanes and the proximity of the Brockway Reservoir, which offers a steady stillness to the landscape. Finley Hollow sits further out, a reminder of the deep, sheltered basins that define the local geography, ensuring that Crenshaw remains a place where the scale of the world feels human and the passage of time is marked by the changing leaves rather than the rush of the modern era.

About This Crenshaw Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Crenshaw, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.248672, -78.761973. 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 Crenshaw includes the ZIP code (15824, 15823), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Jefferson County (Brookville), and school district assignment (Brockway Area 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.
