How to Use This Freeburg, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Freeburg unfolds across the landscape as a collection of quiet, sturdy structures anchored by the persistent, rhythmic flow of the Susquehecka Creek. It lies 29.3 miles north-northwest of West Hanover, PA (from West Hanover, PA: bearing 340°T), and is situated 4.7 miles west-southwest of Selinsgrove. Beyond the immediate banks of the creek, the terrain rises into the modest, verdant folds of Pleasant Valley, where the light at dusk catches the gold in the fields and casts long, violet shadows against the distant, hazy blue silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains. Residents find a familiar center of activity at the Freeburg Boro Playground, a space that serves as a communal hearth for the afternoon hours. The air here holds the crisp, clean scent of earth and turning leaves, a reminder that the rugged expanse of the Haldeman State Forest waits patiently only a few miles to the north, offering a wilder counterpoint to the orderly grid of the local streets.

Freeburg carries the quiet weight of a Pennsylvania legacy, where the economy has long transitioned from the early pulse of frontier settlement to the steady, modest labor of modern trade and agriculture. The history of the region is written in the architecture of the older homes and the persistence of local families who have seen the seasons turn over generations. While the pace of life remains deliberate and unburdened by the frantic energy of larger centers, the spirit of the place is defined by a deep-seated connection to the land and the simple, functional beauty of a well-tilled acre. Those seeking a longer trek often venture toward the Furnace Trail, tracing the paths of those who worked the iron deposits that once fueled the regional industry. Whether one is watching the sun dip behind the ridges or listening to the water move through the Susquehecka Creek, Freeburg maintains a grounded, enduring character that rewards the observant traveler.

About This Freeburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Freeburg, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.76314, -76.939422. 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 Freeburg includes the ZIP code (17827), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Snyder County (Middleburg), and school district assignment (Selinsgrove 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.
