Explore Dunmore, 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 Dunmore, 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 Dunmore.
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.

Dunmore rises from the rugged terrain of northeastern Pennsylvania, defined by the firm grip of the earth and the deep, silent history of the land. It lies 1.7 miles east-northeast of Scranton, PA (from Scranton, PA: bearing 64°T), and is situated 6.3 miles east-northeast of Old Forge. The landscape is marked by the dramatic descent of the Nay Aug Park Gorge, where the water gathers its strength before tumbling over the rocks at Nay Aug Falls. A mile away, the quiet surface of Reservoir Number Seven reflects the shifting sky, while the steady, narrow path of Meadow Brook cuts through the local geography. Beyond the immediate terrain, the distant silhouette of the Pocono Mountains defines the horizon, providing a constant, shadowed boundary to the view. Residents often find their way to the Dunmore Little League grounds to watch the light fade over the fields at the end of a long day.
Dunmore carries the weight of a long industrial legacy, rooted in the extraction of anthracite that once powered the nation’s ambitions. The local economy transitioned from the soot and steam of the mines to a more diverse, modern service and manufacturing base, though the sturdy brick structures of the past remain as evidence of the town’s founding grit. This transition has left a quiet, industrious character, where the rhythm of work is dictated by the changing seasons and the persistent, unyielding nature of the regional soil. The architecture serves as a ledger of survival, reflecting a time when labor was the primary currency and the rail lines were the arteries of existence. Even as the industries have evolved, the people of Dunmore maintain a collective memory of the men who worked the deep veins of the earth, preserving a culture of resilience and plain-spoken honesty.
Dunmore preserves a distinct cultural identity, shaped by the waves of families who arrived to labor in the mines and stayed to build a permanent life. The spirit of the place is best observed during local gatherings, where the focus remains on the strength of the neighborhood and the simple traditions that link one generation to the next. The area offers access to the outdoors, with the Pinnacle Trail serving as a quiet route for those who wish to walk through the woods and contemplate the stillness of the Pennsylvania landscape. Among the figures who have emerged from this background, the author Jean Kerr remains a notable name, having captured the humor and complexity of family life with a voice forged in this specific environment. Life here moves with a deliberate pace, grounded by the surrounding hills and the clear, cold water that flows through the nearby gorge.

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.
