How to Use This Emsworth, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Emsworth occupies a steep, tiered shelf of land rising firmly above the industrial currents of the region. It lies 5.1 miles south of Franklin Park, PA (from Franklin Park, PA: bearing 184°T), and is situated 7.1 miles northwest of Pittsburgh. Lowries Run carves a narrow, persistent path through the terrain, its passage grounding the neighborhood in a constant, quiet movement of water toward the larger river systems below. The atmosphere in Vinegar Hollow remains thick with the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves, a persistent reminder of the dense woodland that once defined the entire plateau. On clear evenings, the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains creates a jagged ink-line against the darkening sky, while the light here often seems to catch on the slate roofs and brick facades, turning the gray stone into something momentarily luminous and soft.

Emsworth grew from the expansion of rail and transit lines that once fueled the growth of the nearby industrial hubs, though it maintains a residential character distinct from the clatter of the valley floor. The local economy shifted long ago from the heavy labor of the mills to a quieter rhythm of small businesses and commuters who favor the verticality of the streets. Residents often look toward the wider geography for recreation, moving toward Lake Ottilie for stillness or toward the Duquesne Incline for a view of the broader landscape, yet the daily life remains anchored to the local hillside. Even the descent toward Fern Hollow feels like a transition into a different, more sheltered pocket of the state, ensuring that Emsworth preserves its own particular sense of scale and seclusion amidst the overlapping layers of the Pennsylvania hills.

About This Emsworth Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Emsworth, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.510068, -80.094501. 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 Emsworth includes the ZIP code (15202), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), and school district assignment (Avonworth 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.
