Explore Exeter, 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 Exeter, 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 Exeter.
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.

Exeter commands a quiet position where the Susquehanna River carves its path through the landscape with a slow, deliberate grace. It lies 5.7 miles northeast of Kingston, PA (from Kingston, PA: bearing 45°T), and is situated 6.1 miles north-northeast of Wilkes-Barre. The ground in Exeter rises into gentle, uneven elevations, providing a sense of depth that contrasts with the flatter plains further afield. Beyond the immediate reach of the riverbanks, the terrain shifts into the rugged contours of the region, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Pocono Mountains defines the horizon. Residents often find solace at Thomas Street Community Park, where the local vegetation reflects the changing seasons in shades of deep amber and forest green. The atmosphere carries a particular clarity, especially during the long, golden hours of late afternoon when the sunlight catches the surface of the water.
Exeter traces its narrative roots to the intense labor of the anthracite coal era, a time that left a permanent imprint on the local identity. The economy, once dominated by the extraction of subterranean minerals, has transitioned into a diverse collection of small-scale industry and service-oriented commerce. Workers have long adapted to the shifting demands of the regional market, maintaining a steady, industrious pace that honors the grit of their predecessors. The legacy of those early mining days remains visible in the sturdy, brick-built architecture that lines many of the older residential streets. Even as modern businesses emerge, the fundamental character of the labor force remains grounded in a practical, hands-on approach to daily life.
Exeter fosters a cultural spirit that values neighborly connection and the preservation of long-standing regional traditions. Local life is often punctuated by gatherings at Thomas Street Community Park, which serves as a vital anchor for social interactions throughout the year. Those seeking deeper immersion in the natural surroundings can venture toward the rugged beauty of Dark Hollow or observe the peaceful waters of Campbells Ledge Reservoir. While the area is modest in its offerings, it provides a quiet sanctuary away from the frenetic energy of larger urban centers. The town’s historical identity is preserved through the quiet persistence of its residents, who carry forward the customs established by earlier generations.

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.
