Explore Crosby, Pennsylvania, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Crosby, 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 Crosby.
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.

Crosby holds the steady, quiet gravity of a place where the earth rises in slow, deliberate folds toward the distant, hazy blue of the Allegheny Mountains. It lies 23.6 miles north-northeast of Saint Marys, PA (from Saint Marys, PA: bearing 22°T), and is situated 10.0 miles east-southeast of McKean. Walcott Brook carves a persistent silver vein through the landscape, its waters pulling away from the shade of the Susquehanna State Forest to meander toward the deep, shadowed creases of White Hollow. Here, the air carries a crispness that suggests the high elevation of the plateau, a dry chill that lingers even as the afternoon sun flattens the color of the fields into shades of ochre and burnt slate. Residents often look toward the horizon where the land shifts, acknowledging the geography that dictates the slow, rhythmic cooling of the evenings in Norwich Township Park.
Industry in Crosby remains tied to the hard-won lessons of the soil and the timber that once defined the regional expansion of the interior. The local economy persists with a modest, grounded endurance, moving at the pace of the seasons rather than the frantic ticking of a clock, while the nearby waters of Simpson Cove provide a silent, still counterpoint to the movement of the brook. History resides in the weathered clapboard and the brick foundations of the older structures, signaling a time when the extraction of resources shaped the very layout of the streets. Life in Crosby is defined by this persistent connection to the land, an existence that favors the endurance of the forest and the steady, unadorned work that keeps the region moving through the changing light of the year.

Detailed location data for Crosby includes the ZIP code (16749, 16724), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of McKean County (Smethport), 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.
