How to Use This Emporium, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Emporium, 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 Emporium.

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.

Emporium occupies a narrow, deliberate corridor where the steep walls of the surrounding plateau seem to lean in, cradling the valley floor in a permanent, quiet shadow. It lies 17.8 miles east-northeast of Saint Marys, PA (from Saint Marys, PA: bearing 71°T), and is situated 17.8 miles east-northeast of St. Marys. Marys. The Driftwood Branch Sinnemahoning Creek cuts through this terrain, its waters moving with a steady, muscular clarity that defines the local topography and dictates the orientation of every street. Beyond the immediate reach of the valley, the landscape rises into the rugged, forested expanse of Elk State Forest, a vast stretch of timber that keeps the modern world at a respectful distance. In the damp coolness of early morning, a silver mist often clings to the creek bed, while the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains offer a reminder of the scale of this interior wilderness. Residents often gather at the Borough Mini Park, a small, open respite that provides a human-scale contrast to the towering, timber-clad hills that climb toward the sky from every direction.

Emporium emerged as a center of industry shaped by the extraction of raw materials and the relentless necessity of rail transit, leaving a legacy of sturdy brick and industrious intent. While the economic tides have shifted away from the intensive manufacturing that once defined the regional character, the rhythms of daily life remain anchored to the land and the endurance of its people. A short distance away, the quiet waters of the Emporium Reservoir reflect the changing seasons, just as the nearby Sand Springs Trail invites a slow, deliberate engagement with the dense woods of Plank Road Hollow. The atmosphere here is marked by a certain gravity, a sense that history is not a collection of stories but a physical weight carried in the architecture and the way the light fades behind the ridge lines at dusk. Life in Emporium persists with a quiet, unadorned resilience, moving forward through the seasons with the same predictable, patient persistence as the creek that flows through its center.

About This Emporium Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Emporium, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.511452, -78.235287. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service. Real-time local and world news feeds keep the page current.

Detailed location data for Emporium includes the ZIP code (15834), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Cameron County (Emporium), and school district assignment (Cameron County School District).

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.
