Explore Greenwood, 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 Greenwood, 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 Greenwood.
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.

Greenwood occupies a quiet intersection of land where the Sandy Run carves a path through the earth, marking the steady, persistent flow of water past the local thresholds. It lies 2.3 miles east-northeast of Altoona, PA (from Altoona, PA: bearing 59°T), and is situated 7.7 miles north-northeast of Hollidaysburg. Beyond the immediate banks of the creek, the landscape stretches toward the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains, which anchor the horizon in deep shades of blue and charcoal. Greenwood Park offers a patch of open green where the air feels thinner and colder than in the lowlands, carrying the scent of damp soil and ancient stone. Two miles away, the surface of Kettle Reservoir holds the reflection of the sky, a flat mirror that keeps the stillness of the afternoon. The light here at dusk does not fade so much as it settles, thickening against the trunks of the hardwoods until the entire valley seems to hold its breath.
History in Greenwood remains etched into the foundations of the older masonry, silent markers of a time when the economy relied on the rhythmic output of the region’s timber and coal. While the industry of the past has softened, the people of Greenwood continue to define themselves by the labor required to maintain a life so far from the reach of the bustling industrial centers. The proximity to Logan Valley provides a passage for the wind, a draft that keeps the summer heat from lingering too long on the porch steps. Life moves with a deliberate pace, synchronized to the transition of seasons that turn the surrounding woods from a vibrant, mossy green to the brittle, golden hues of late autumn. This is a place where the repetition of daily chores—tending to the gardens or clearing the leaves along the Sandy Run—establishes a quiet, enduring order that persists regardless of the changing world outside.

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.
