Explore Edgemont, 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 Edgemont, 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 Edgemont.
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.

Edgemont reveals its character through the slow, rhythmic pulse of Bertsch Creek, which carves a modest path through the landscape as it meanders toward the horizon. It lies 7.0 miles north-northwest of Northampton, PA (from Northampton, PA: bearing 336°T), and is situated 9.4 miles north-northwest of Catasauqua. The terrain surrounding Edgemont is defined by the steady, terrestrial patience of the interior, situated eighty-one miles from any coastline and marked by the terrestrial architecture of the Pennsylvania landscape. A mile away, the quiet boundaries of State Game Land 168 offer a sanctuary of dense undergrowth and seasonal color, while Indianola Lake sits two miles distant, its still waters reflecting the expansive, slate-gray sky of late autumn. On the clearest days, the distant silhouette of the Pocono Mountains anchors the northern skyline, providing a jagged, blue-tinted contrast to the soft, terrestrial contours of the immediate plains.
History here is written in the quiet persistence of local industry and the enduring legacy of inland commerce that once defined the surrounding counties. While the influence of the nearby Delaware-Lehigh State Experimental Forest shapes the regional climate and timber heritage, the local economy remains tethered to the steady output of small-scale enterprise and the legacy of the ridge-and-valley topography. Life in Edgemont follows a cadence established by the changing seasons, far removed from the bustle of the larger river-fed cities to the west. Residents look toward the distant, rolling heights of Nis Hollow as a reminder of the geological depth of the region, maintaining a pace of life that values the heavy, fertile soil and the quietude of a geography that has remained largely unchanged by the frantic expansion of the modern era.

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.
