How to Use This Frederick, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Frederick, Pennsylvania

Frederick is a locality in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 18.0 people per km².

Frederick stretches across a landscape where the earth rises and falls in long, rhythmic swells of fertile soil and woodland. It lies 2.8 miles east of New Hanover, PA (from New Hanover, PA: bearing 83°T), and is situated 7.5 miles east-northeast of Pottstown. The Scioto Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the terrain, its waters reflecting the shifting canopy of deciduous trees that color the seasons in shades of deep emerald or brittle amber. Beyond the immediate fields, the horizon holds the faint, jagged silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains, visible only when the air grows thin and crisp under a winter sky. Residents seeking the quietude of open space often retreat to the paths of Bob Wayland Memorial Park, where the stillness of the land offers a sharp contrast to the persistent hum of modern transit. The proximity of Green Lane Reservoir softens the dry heat of midsummer, drawing a cool, damp breath across the surrounding meadows as dusk settles over the fields.

Frederick maintains the quiet composure of a place rooted in the agricultural traditions of the region, where the pace of life is dictated by the turning of the seasons rather than the urgency of industry. The local economy relies on the steady maintenance of these lands, preserving a character that values the preservation of space over the encroachment of sprawling development. Long ago, the influence of the Pennsylvania Dutch culture instilled a preference for sturdy craftsmanship and a disciplined approach to the land, an ethos that persists in the way the architecture of the area remains understated and functional. Those who prefer a longer trek through the natural world often follow the Old Dutchman Trail, which connects the locality to the broader, quiet rhythms of the surrounding countryside. Even as the distance from the Oley Valley provides a sense of isolation, the people of Frederick find a grounded satisfaction in the permanence of their surroundings and the reliability of the soil beneath their feet.

About This Frederick Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Frederick, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.302877, -75.529346. 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 Frederick includes the ZIP code (19492, 19435), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Montgomery County (Norristown), and school district assignment.

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.
