How to Use This Fox Chase, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Fox Chase, Pennsylvania

Fox Chase is a locality in Berks County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,600. The population density is 1775.2 people per km². Fox Chase is located at 40.3948°N, 75.9634°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 19111, 19605.

Fox Chase occupies a deliberate position upon the inland terrain, defined by the persistent, heavy flow of the Schuylkill River that marks the edge of the local geography. It lies 4.5 miles north-northwest of Reading, PA (from Reading, PA: bearing 336°T), and is situated 4.6 miles north of Wyomissing. The landscape here is characterized by an enduring, terrestrial permanence, far removed from the volatility of the coast, where the ground rises in muted, earth-toned swells toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains. Stoudt's Ferry Playground serves as the primary anchor for the immediate environment, providing a quiet expanse of green that absorbs the long, amber light of late afternoon. Beyond these boundaries, the Muhlenberg Rail Trail cuts a narrow, purposeful path through the brush, offering a steady, linear connection for those moving through the interior of the state. Even in the height of summer, the air retains a crisp weight, untainted by salt and smelling instead of damp soil, deep-rooted hardwoods, and the faint, metallic tang of the riverbed.

History in Fox Chase is not a static display but a quiet accumulation of industry and the industrious spirit that once centered on the Schuylkill River as a vital artery for trade and movement. The local economy has shifted from the labor-intensive patterns of the past toward a more measured existence, though the shadow of the valley floor at Shalters Grove remains a reminder of the region’s agricultural and industrial foundations. Residents frequent the Muhlenberg Swimming Association Pool to escape the mid-summer heat, a site that has become a localized ritual for the rhythm of the year. Life here moves with a pragmatic, unadorned pace, reflecting a culture that values the solid brick architecture and the predictable seasonal turn of the Pennsylvania interior. There is a specific, solitary beauty in the way the morning mist clings to the low-lying fields, a reminder that Fox Chase remains a place built upon the quiet, steady work of the land and the river.

About This Fox Chase Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fox Chase, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.394796, -75.96342. 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 Fox Chase includes the ZIP code (19111, 19605), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Berks County (Reading), and school district assignment (Muhlenberg 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.
