How to Use This Jonestown, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Jonestown emerges from the flat, fertile earth of the Swatara Creek valley, where the landscape stretches in wide, agrarian expanses punctuated by the quiet persistence of limestone and clay. It lies 6.3 miles northwest of Berwick, PA (from Berwick, PA: bearing 324°T), and is situated 6.3 miles northwest of East Berwick. Huntington Creek traces a deliberate path through the terrain, its current carving a subtle silver line that dictates the flow of the local geography as it moves toward the horizon. To the north, the distant Appalachian Mountains rise as a hazy, indigo suggestion against the sky, grounding the view in a deep sense of geologic permanence. The air here holds the scent of damp soil and harvest, and the light at dusk settles with a heavy, golden clarity that turns the fields of Jonestown into a study of amber and shadow.

State Game Land 055 provides a sprawling, wooded sanctuary just a mile away, offering a dense contrast to the tidy grid of the residential blocks and the nearby Creasy Hollow. Historically, the economy of Jonestown drew its strength from the steady rhythm of agriculture and the trade routes that once funneled resources toward the developing industrial centers of the region. Today, the pace of life remains tethered to the change of seasons, reflecting a culture that values the endurance of its brick-fronted buildings and the quiet industry of its inhabitants. Residents often look toward the quiet waters of Briar Creek Reservoir when seeking a reprieve, finding in its stillness a reflection of the town’s own measured, uncomplicated character.
