Explore Hickory, 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 Hickory, 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 Hickory.
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.

Hickory stretches across a landscape defined by the persistent, winding path of Raccoon Creek, which cuts through the earth like a silver vein cooling the heavy soil of the Allegheny Plateau. It lies 8.6 miles west-southwest of South Fayette, PA (from South Fayette, PA: bearing 242°T), and is situated 9.2 miles north-northwest of Washington. The terrain here rises and falls in long, rhythmic swells of green and brown, an inland expanse where the air holds the scent of damp loam and the distant, cooling influence of Cherry Valley Reservoir. Sunlight catches the blades of high grass at the edge of the Viking Ballfield, turning the field into a quiet stage for the long, golden shadows of the late afternoon. Ninety-six miles to the east, the hazy, blue-tinted silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains anchor the horizon, reminding those who dwell in Hickory of the vast, folded topography that separates this quiet corridor from the rest of the world.
History in Hickory feels less like a written record and more like the slow accumulation of rust and topsoil, built upon the hard labor that once defined the regional economy of the western Pennsylvania interior. The local rhythm is dictated by the steady turn of the seasons rather than the frantic pulse of the nearby industrial hubs, favoring a pace that allows the land to dictate the day's work. While the echoes of coal and steel still linger in the architecture of the older houses, the present day finds the people of Hickory tending to the fields or moving quietly through the daily business of a life that has long since outgrown its original, extractive roots. It is a place where the stillness of a Sunday morning is broken only by the sound of wind moving through the trees that line the banks of the creek, a testament to a quiet, enduring existence far removed from the clamor of the coast.

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.
