Explore Fox Chase, 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 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.

Fox Chase unfolds as a landscape of quiet transition, where the suburban grid meets the persistent, unhurried pulse of the earth. It lies 3.4 miles southeast of Abington, PA (from Abington, PA: bearing 144°T), and is situated 9.9 miles north-northeast of Philadelphia. The Rockledge Branch carves a narrow, serpentine path through the terrain, its banks lined with the tangled, earthen resilience of local flora that seems to hold the very geography in place. Here, the light of late afternoon filters through the canopy of the Fox Chase - Lorimer Trail Greenway (Rhawn), casting long, thin shadows that stretch across the walking paths like ink spilled on parchment. The air holds a particular stillness, a weight of inland atmosphere that feels miles removed from any restless, surging tide, grounding the neighborhood in a permanent, terrestrial calm.
History in Fox Chase remains etched into the brickwork of its older residences and the layout of its streets, which reflect a time when the rhythm of life was dictated by the arrival of the rail. The local economy has long since shifted from its early agrarian roots, yet a sense of industrious purpose lingers in the small businesses and professional nodes that anchor the neighborhood. While the distant Appalachian Mountains remain a mere suggestion on the western horizon, the immediate land is defined by the presence of the Fox Chase - Lorimer Trail Greenway (Rhawn), a vital artery for those seeking a reprieve from the mechanical hum of modern transit. The character of the locale is one of steady endurance, a place where the proximity to the Oak Lane Reservoir provides a subtle, reflective balance to the dense, familiar architecture of the region.

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.
