How to Use This Forestville, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Forestville, Pennsylvania

Forestville is a locality in Butler County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 399. The population density is 170.0 people per km². Forestville is located at 40.6923°N, 76.3013°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 16035, 16038, 17901.

Forestville occupies a quiet stretch of the Allegheny Plateau where the land rises and falls in long, muscular swells of earth. It lies 17.9 miles north-northwest of Butler, PA (from Butler, PA: bearing 341°T), and is situated 5.6 miles southeast of Grove City. McDonald Run carves a narrow, persistent path through the local topography, its waters tracing the low points of the landscape with a rhythmic, percussive clarity. The horizon remains wide and open, though the distant, hazy blue of the Allegheny Mountains occasionally suggests itself against the sky on the clearest days. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain grows dense and tangled toward the Clear Creek State Forest Kennerdell Tract, while the softer, more deliberate waters of Barmore Lake hold the reflection of the clouds just six miles away. The air here carries a sharp, metallic chill at dusk, a sensation that clings to the skin like the memory of a coming frost.

Forestville maintains a steady, internal pace, defined by the lingering influence of the agrarian traditions that first claimed this ground. Local activity often gravitates toward the open space of Harrisville Community Park, where the community gathers to mark the seasons away from the wider, more frantic thoroughfares of the region. The economy remains tethered to the land and the small-scale commerce that has persisted through generations, eschewing the rapid shifts seen in larger industrial centers. Residents observe the change of light across the Kettle Hole basin with a practical familiarity, understanding that the character of Forestville is built upon this quiet endurance. There is a specific, muted gravity to the afternoons here, where the sound of the wind through the trees feels like the primary language of the place.

About This Forestville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Forestville, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.692311, -76.301338. 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 Forestville includes the ZIP code (16035, 16038, 17901), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Butler County (Butler), and school district assignment (Minersville 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.
