How to Use This Greensboro, Pennsylvania Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Greensboro, 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 Greensboro.
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 Greensboro, Pennsylvania
Greensboro is a locality in Greene County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 264. The population density is 943.8 people per km². Greensboro is located at 39.7912°N, 79.9128°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. Greensboro is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 15338.Greensboro commands a quiet position where the Monongahela River carves a deep, serpentine path through the verdant landscape of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 26.4 miles south-southwest of Rostraver, PA (from Rostraver, PA: bearing 192°T), and is situated 8.8 miles north-northwest of Cheat Lake. The Monongahela River acts as a persistent companion to Greensboro, its dark, steady waters reflecting the heavy foliage that clings to the steep banks and the shadows cast by the hills of Tomcat Hollow. Beyond the immediate river valley, the horizon is defined by the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains, while the terrestrial air carries the damp, earthy scent of the nearby Coopers Rock State Forest. At dusk, the light softens against the architecture of the riverfront, turning the gray stone and aged brick into muted, velvet tones that settle over the valley floor like a cooling breath.
Greensboro retains the quiet, deliberate character of a place built upon the labor of the earth, its legacy inextricably linked to the industrial veins that once pulsed through the surrounding terrain. Mon View Park provides a public threshold where the history of the land remains visible, offering a vantage point to observe the slow, rhythmic movement of the river that served as the primary artery for local commerce and early expansion. Though the clamor of past industry has faded, the influence of the region's mineral wealth and traditional crafts lingers in the architecture and the disciplined, measured pace of daily life. The proximity to Cheat Lake provides a distinct contrast to the river’s steady flow, yet it is the enduring presence of the Monongahela River that anchors Greensboro to its origins, keeping the spirit of the place tethered to the slow, inevitable turn of the seasons.

About This Greensboro Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Greensboro, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 39.791188, -79.912834. 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 Greensboro includes the ZIP code (15338), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Greene County (Waynesburg), and school district assignment (Southeastern Greene 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.
