How to Use This Fernville, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Fernville, Pennsylvania

Fernville is a locality in Columbia County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 481. The population density is 229.8 people per km². Fernville is located at 41.0020°N, 76.4774°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 17815.

Fernville commands a quiet stretch of land where the earth rises in slow, deliberate folds, defined by the persistent pulse of the Fishing Creek as it carves a path through the silt and stone. It lies 6.2 miles east-southeast of Chambersburg, PA (from Chambersburg, PA: bearing 107°T), and is situated 9.8 miles south of Shippensburg. The light here possesses a particular clarity in the late afternoon, casting long, lean shadows across the fields that spill toward the Frosty Valley. While the distant Appalachian Mountains provide a jagged, hazy boundary against the western sky, the immediate horizon remains dominated by the dense, verdant timber that gives the locale its name. Seven miles to the north, the waters of Lake Glory remain still and reflective, acting as a cool respite from the heat that gathers in the low-lying hollows during the height of July.

Fernville maintains a steady, industrious pace, its identity anchored by the legacy of the Bloomsburg Fairgrounds, which anchors the landscape with an expanse of open space that transforms with the seasonal shift of the agricultural calendar. Historically, the rhythm of the economy has been dictated by the yield of the soil and the movement of goods through the interior, reflecting a heritage of labor that values the tangible over the fleeting. The architectural character of the neighborhood leans toward the sturdy, with brick and timber structures that have weathered the cycles of frost and thaw with persistent grace. Life in Fernville proceeds with a deliberate, unadorned focus, where the morning mist rising from the nearby creek bed dictates the start of the day just as surely as the tolling of a distant bell.

About This Fernville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fernville, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.001972, -76.477437. 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 Fernville includes the ZIP code (17815), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Columbia County (Bloomsburg), and school district assignment (Bloomsburg Area 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.
