How to Use This Hilldale, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Hilldale, Pennsylvania

Hilldale is a locality in Luzerne County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,120. The population density is 528.0 people per km². Hilldale is located at 41.2869°N, 75.8361°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 18705, 15037, 16041.

Hilldale occupies a quiet plateau where the earth seems to hold its breath against the encroaching shadows of the distant Pocono Mountains. It lies 3.7 miles east-northeast of Kingston, PA (from Kingston, PA: bearing 59°T), and is situated 3.8 miles northeast of Wilkes-Barre. The Susquehanna River carves a deliberate path just a mile away, its currents pulling the light into long, shimmering ribbons that define the low-lying basin of the region. Only four miles away, the sudden, sharp descent of Whirlpool Canyon Falls disrupts the stillness of the woods, echoing through the silence of Deep Hollow. Within the immediate neighborhood, the Borough Building Playground serves as a central anchor for the local rhythm, its worn swings and benches offering a view toward the horizon where the land flattens into an unassuming expanse of dense, inland woodland.

Hilldale retains the steady, industrious pulse of an anthracite heritage that once dictated the very pace of the region’s development. The economy has shifted from the heavy extraction of the past toward a smaller, more localized existence, where the daily circulation of residents toward the Susquehanna River or the quiet shores of Meadow Run Lake creates a predictable, measured cadence. Every afternoon, the slant of the sun against the brick facades of the older buildings reveals the remnants of a time when the labor of the soil and the earth defined the identity of the people. This particular stillness, marked by the absence of haste and a profound respect for the topography, remains the defining character of Hilldale as it moves through the changing seasons.

About This Hilldale Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hilldale, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.286895, -75.836058. 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 Hilldale includes the ZIP code (18705, 15037, 16041), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Luzerne County (Wilkes-Barre), and school district assignment (Wilkes-Barre Area 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.
