How to Use This Highland Park, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Highland Park, Pennsylvania

Highland Park is a locality in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,317. The population density is 686.2 people per km². Highland Park is located at 40.6217°N, 77.5706°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 17044, 18960, 18045.

Highland Park defines its character through the steady, persistent carve of Cobbs Creek, which winds through the verdant corridors of Cobbs Creek Park to shape the local topography. It lies 1.7 miles northeast of Drexel Hill, PA (from Drexel Hill, PA: bearing 41°T), and is situated 5.8 miles west of Philadelphia. Dense woodlands provide a natural buffer, grounding the residential streets in a quiet, arboreal stillness that persists even as the modern world hums nearby. The light here often catches the damp earth after a rain, turning the soil a deep, rich brown that speaks to the fertility of the Pennsylvania landscape. Residents move through these spaces with a sense of familiarity, their daily patterns dictated by the seasonal shift of shadows across the park’s pathways and the cooling influence of the creek as it moves toward the distant, rolling horizons of the Appalachian Mountains.

Historical growth in Highland Park emerged from the steady expansion of regional transit and suburban development, creating a distinct rhythm of brick-lined streets and sturdy, mid-century homes. The local economy benefits from its proximity to major centers of industry and education, though the neighborhood maintains an independent, residential gravity that separates it from the frantic pace of the surrounding urban sprawl. While the Falls of Schuylkill provide a distant, rushing echo of the region's industrial power, the quietude of Highland Park remains its most persistent trait. Life here is measured in the small, reliable interactions of neighbors and the maintenance of a landscape that honors its connection to the inland forests, keeping the frenetic energy of the larger world at a respectful distance.

About This Highland Park Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Highland Park, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.621671, -77.570621. 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 Highland Park includes the ZIP code (17044, 18960, 18045), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Delaware County (Media), and school district assignment (Mifflin 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.
