How to Use This Hamilton, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Hamilton, Pennsylvania

Hamilton is a locality in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, United States. Hamilton is located at 40.9242°N, 79.0809°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 17801, 15767, 15744.

Hamilton emerges from the rolling, forested terrain of the Allegheny Plateau, defined by the steady, persistent flow of Perryville Run as it carves a path through the earth. It lies 21.3 miles north of Indiana, PA (from Indiana, PA: bearing 10°T), and is situated 5.9 miles west-southwest of Punxsutawney. The light here possesses a particular clarity, filtering through the dense canopy to illuminate the damp, shadowed soil of the valley floor before reaching the expansive waters of Mahoning Creek Lake, which dominates the horizon just a mile away. The Allegheny Mountains remain a distant, hazy indigo smudge against the western sky, a reminder of the vast, rugged geology that cradles the region. In the quiet hours of the afternoon, the air carries a crisp, earthen scent, suggesting a landscape that has long been shaped by the slow, deliberate work of water against stone.

Hamilton reflects the quiet persistence of a place built upon the rhythms of the Pennsylvania interior, where the echoes of industrial labor have softened into the steady hum of modern daily life. The regional identity is tied to the legacy of the plateau, where the extraction of resources once dictated the pace of settlement and the architecture of the local streets. Today, the economy leans into the natural bounty of the land, with Mahoning Creek Lake serving as a focal point for those who find respite in the stillness of the reservoir’s edge. Life in Hamilton moves with the measured, unpretentious gravity of a locale that values the endurance of its traditions, where the changing seasons dictate the tempo of the day as surely as they did for the generations that cleared these woods long ago.

About This Hamilton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hamilton, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.924231, -79.080869. 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 Hamilton includes the ZIP code (17801, 15767, 15744), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Jefferson County (Brookville), 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.
