Explore Curwensville, 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 Curwensville, 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 Curwensville.
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.

Curwensville marks the confluence of quiet industry and the persistent, amber-tinted flow of the West Branch Susquehanna River as it carves a path through the ancient, verdant landscape. It lies 31.3 miles south of Saint Marys, PA (from Saint Marys, PA: bearing 177°T), and is situated 5.7 miles southwest of Clearfield. The air here holds the crisp, metallic scent of the upland woods, carrying a coolness that lingers even when the afternoon sun warms the slate-colored stone of the older foundations. Beyond the immediate banks of the river, the terrain rises into the broad, forested reach of the Allegheny Plateau, where the horizon is defined by the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains. Only a mile away, the placid waters of Curwensville Lake offer a reflective contrast to the moving current, mirroring the sky in a stillness that invites a slow, deliberate pace to the day.
History in Curwensville remains anchored to the earth, echoing the era when timber and coal dictated the pulse of the regional economy and defined the grit of those who labored here. The legacy of these trades is visible in the architecture of the streetscapes, where brick facades retain the quiet dignity of a time when the rhythm of life was measured by the whistle of the worksite and the changing seasons. Residents often find solace in the open green spaces of Irvin Park, a place where the community gathers beneath the canopy of maturing hardwoods that seem to hold the memory of the landscape's transformation. While the demands of modern commerce have shifted, the character of Curwensville persists, grounded in a steady, unpretentious endurance that finds quiet beauty in the simple intersection of water, woodland, and the enduring labor of its people.

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.
