Explore Glasgow, 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 Glasgow, 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 Glasgow.
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.

Glasgow emerges from the landscape as a quiet intersection of earth and water, defined primarily by the persistent, winding path of the Upper Dry Run. It lies 17.5 miles west-northwest of Carnot-Moon, PA (from Carnot-Moon, PA: bearing 300°T), and is situated 4.1 miles east-southeast of Saint Clair Township. The terrain here is characterized by the modest, weathered elevations typical of the Allegheny Plateau, where the horizon remains flat and unyielding against the sky. Sunlight catches the silt-heavy banks of the creek, turning the water a deep, liquid copper during the long, amber-hued afternoons of late autumn. Beyond the immediate banks, the land rises into secluded, wooded tracts, providing a dense canopy that shelters the soil from the sharpness of the wind. A mile away, the Beaver Creek State Forest serves as a sprawling, verdant anchor, its thickets and trails offering a quiet refuge that stands in stark contrast to the open fields that define the immediate perimeter of Glasgow.
Industrial ambition once shaped the ambitions of those who settled this expanse, though the contemporary rhythm of Glasgow is dictated more by the cycles of the seasons than by the heavy machinery of the past. The local economy persists through a grounded, steady stewardship of the land, reflected in the way the town maintains its modest footprint amidst the surrounding expanse of timber and brush. Residents often look toward the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Appalachian Mountains, which loom as a reminder of the vast, varied geography that spans the interior of the continent. For those seeking quiet movement, the Fishermans Trail remains a familiar, well-worn path, leading hikers away from the town center and toward the serene, stillness of Lake Marwin. Life here moves with a deliberate, singular gravity, indifferent to the pace of the outside world and deeply attuned to the cooling air that drifts down from the higher elevations of Purgatory Hollow.

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Glasgow, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.644495, -80.50767. 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 Glasgow includes the ZIP code (16639, 19464, 15059), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Beaver County (Beaver), and school district assignment (Western Beaver County 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.
