How to Use This Irwin, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Irwin emerges from the undulating landscape of the Allegheny Plateau as a collection of brick facades and sloped streets that catch the amber light of late afternoon. It lies 1.6 miles east-southeast of North Huntingdon, PA (from North Huntingdon, PA: bearing 104°T), and is situated 8.1 miles southeast of Monroeville. Brush Creek carves a determined path through the lower reaches, its waters reflecting the gray, industrial sky that often hangs over the region. Within the town limits, Irwin Park offers a quiet expanse of green where the local pace slows, providing a sanctuary of grass and trees that contrasts with the rhythmic transit of the surrounding slopes. The horizon remains dominated by the earth itself, a sturdy, terrestrial presence that defines the boundaries of the valley floor, while the distant, jagged silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains suggests a vastness that lies far beyond the immediate horizon.

Industry and the passage of rail once dictated the pulse of Irwin, anchoring its economy in the hard-won labor of the coal and steel era that defined the broader region. Today, the echoes of those mid-century engines have softened, replaced by the persistent, humming commerce of small storefronts and the daily movement of residents across the grid. The nearby expanse of Possum Hollow serves as a reminder of the rugged, uncultivated terrain that persists just outside the urban footprint, while Indian Lake remains a localized point of stillness for those seeking the quiet of a shoreline. Life in Irwin moves with a steady, grounded consistency, shaped by a history of extraction and grit that left behind a permanent, resilient character in the architecture and the people who maintain it.

About This Irwin Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Irwin, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.324514, -79.701155. 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 Irwin includes the ZIP code (15642), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Westmoreland County (Greensburg), and school district assignment (Norwin 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.
