How to Use This Cross Roads, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Cross Roads occupies a quiet intersection of high, fertile ground where the horizon is defined by the distant, hazy blue of the Blue Ridge Mountains. It lies 12.7 miles southeast of York, PA (from York, PA: bearing 141°T), and is situated 5.8 miles south-southeast of Red Lion. The landscape here is characterized by broad, sweeping fields and dense stands of timber that follow the descent toward Rambo Run, a narrow waterway that cuts through the local clay with persistent, quiet purpose. In the deepening amber light of late afternoon, the shadows stretch across the fields, lending the topography a sense of weighted permanence. Visitors seeking the stillness of the region often look toward the Wallace-Cross Mill Historical Site, where the architecture serves as a lingering reminder of the mechanics that once powered the daily lives of those who worked the land.

Agriculture remains the quiet pulse of Cross Roads, though the modern rhythm of the locality is defined more by its proximity to the rural sprawl of southern Pennsylvania than by any singular industry. The local character is shaped by a legacy of agrarian endurance, seen in the sturdy, weathered barns and the winding paths that lead toward the solitude of Rehmeyer Hollow. Life moves with an unpretentious pace, far from the frantic energy of metropolitan centers, yet connected to the wider region by the winding roads that traverse the basin. During the warmer months, residents may travel toward the cooling depths of Lake Redman, or venture further to hike the Camp Echo Trail, finding in these surroundings a modest, enduring beauty that avoids the clamor of more crowded destinations.

About This Cross Roads Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cross Roads, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 39.819546, -76.576634. 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 Cross Roads includes the ZIP code (17322), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of York County (York), and school district assignment (South Eastern 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.
