Explore Dallas, 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 Dallas, 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 Dallas.
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.

Dallas occupies a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of the inland terrain, where the earth holds a steady, grounded stillness. It lies 6.2 miles northwest of Kingston, PA (from Kingston, PA: bearing 326°T), and is situated 7.6 miles northwest of Wilkes-Barre. Toby Creek moves through the low-lying sections of the land, its current marking a path that has long shaped the local topography. Residents often look toward the distant horizon where the Pocono Mountains trace a faint, serrated line against the sky. The immediate surroundings feature the quiet expanse of Goss Manor Park, which provides a central space for the rhythm of daily life to unfold. Near the northern edges, Huntsville Reservoir gathers the runoff of the region, reflecting the changing light of the seasons in its still, dark surface. Beyond these features, the terrain gently rises toward the shelter of Bear Hollow, creating a modest basin that feels removed from the frantic pace of larger, more crowded places.
Dallas emerged from a history rooted in the quiet labor of the interior, where the land provided the primary means of survival and growth. The local economy evolved from early agricultural pursuits into a modern mix of services and small-scale commerce that supports the day-to-day needs of the inhabitants. Long ago, the nearby anthracite industry left a quiet, lingering memory in the regional character, influencing the way people value endurance and steady work. Today, the commercial vitality of Dallas remains modest, favoring local businesses that serve the immediate population rather than large-scale industrial sprawl. This commitment to a functional, localized economy keeps the atmosphere focused on the maintenance of a manageable, productive environment. The steady hum of the current workforce reflects a transition from the heavy extraction of the past to a more diverse, service-oriented presence.
Dallas maintains a cultural character shaped by the intersection of academic influences and the traditions of a long-standing Pennsylvania identity. The presence of Misericordia University lends a specific intellectual vitality to the atmosphere, drawing students and faculty who contribute to the town's social fabric. Notable landmarks like the local courthouse square serve as a physical anchor for public life, hosting gatherings that bring the residents together in a shared space. While the town remains quiet, it is occasionally recognized for the professional achievements of individuals like the acclaimed actor Jack Palance, who spent his later years in the surrounding region. The pace of life here is defined by the changing colors of the deciduous trees and the specific, crisp quality of the autumn air. Through these small, meaningful rhythms, Dallas preserves a sense of place that feels both enduring and distinct from the world beyond its borders.

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.
