How to Use This Fairview, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

About Fairview, Pennsylvania

Fairview is a locality in Erie County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,850. The population density is 310.4 people per km². Fairview is located at 42.0255°N, 80.2547°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 17866, 15052, 15501.

Fairview anchors a stretch of high, fertile ground that rises steadily from the vast, slate-colored expanse of Lake Erie. It lies 5.3 miles west-southwest of Millcreek, PA (from Millcreek, PA: bearing 240°T), and is situated 3.9 miles east-northeast of Girard. The landscape is defined by a slow, deliberate tilt toward the water, where the Trout Run carves a narrow, persistent path through the limestone and shale, its current cutting deeper into the earth as it nears the lake’s edge. Beyond the immediate banks of the creek, the land opens into broad, productive fields that catch the long, flat light of the afternoon, giving the region a sense of quiet, expansive stillness. For those seeking the solace of the outdoors, the Park remains a central fixture, providing a dense, green corridor of woodland that contrasts with the open agricultural plots surrounding it. Five miles away, the water of Howard Falls drops over the rock, a sudden, vertical disruption in an otherwise measured and level terrain that stretches for miles before the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the horizon.

Fairview grew from the industry of the soil, grounded in the rhythms of planting and harvest that have long dictated the pace of life here. The local economy has shifted from early agrarian roots to a contemporary mix of small-scale commerce and manufacturing, yet the character of the place retains a sturdy, unassuming work ethic that favors utility over ornament. Residents move through their days with a steady, practiced gait, the legacy of a settlement built on the hard-won independence of Pennsylvania’s inland townships. There is a particular weight to the autumn air here, a cool, crisp quality that seems to settle into the wood-frame houses and brick facades, marking the transition from the humid warmth of the lake-influenced summer to the long, gray dormancy of winter. Even as the modern world encroaches, Fairview maintains a distinct, solitary identity, tethered to the patterns of the land and the steady, unyielding flow of the water that defines its borders.

About This Fairview Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fairview, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 42.025458, -80.254725. 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 Fairview includes the ZIP code (17866, 15052, 15501), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Erie County (Erie), and school district assignment (Fairview 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.
