Explore Edwardsville, 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 Edwardsville, 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 Edwardsville.
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.

Edwardsville occupies a broad shelf of land that rises steadily from the floor of the Wyoming Valley, where the air often holds the cool, heavy scent of damp earth and coming rain. It lies 1.1 miles west-northwest of Kingston, PA (from Kingston, PA: bearing 298°T), and is situated 2.4 miles northwest of Wilkes-Barre. Toby Creek carves a persistent path through the local topography, its waters moving with a quiet, steady purpose toward the larger drainage of the region, while the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Pocono Mountains frame the eastern horizon. The landscape here is defined by the transition from low-lying alluvial soil to the rugged, timbered rises of Pinchot State Forest, which offers a wilder, unmanicured counterpoint to the town’s orderly grid of streets. At dusk, the light catches the fine, industrial dust that still seems to linger in the corners of the valley, casting a long, amber glow across the slate-colored roofs and the sturdy, modest brickwork of the older neighborhoods.
Edwardsville emerged from the deep, anthracite-rich strata of the earth, its early character forged by the toil of miners who tunneled beneath the surface to fuel the growth of a nation. This history is not merely a record of the past but a layer of the present, visible in the way the architecture clings to the hillside and the enduring, practical spirit of those who call the place home. While the primary extraction industry has long since receded, the economy has shifted toward a more varied landscape of small commerce and regional services, maintaining a steady, grounded pace of life. Residents might travel a few miles to find the quiet expanse of Spring Brook Reservoir Number Four or hike the trails bordering the forest, yet the daily rhythm of Edwardsville remains tethered to the local streets and the shared memory of a working-class heritage. There is a particular, understated beauty in how the town persists, a solid and familiar fixture against the backdrop of the rugged Pennsylvania terrain.

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.
