How to Use This Large, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Large, Pennsylvania

Large is a locality in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,800. The population density is 280.0 people per km². Large is located at 40.2903°N, 79.9245°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 15025.

Large occupies a quiet stretch of land defined by the persistent, winding course of Peters Creek, which cuts through the terrain with a steady, enduring presence.

It lies 1.9 miles west of Middletown Bucks County, PA (from Middletown Bucks County, PA: bearing 273°T), and is situated 7.8 miles north-northwest of Burlington.

The landscape around Large is shaped by the subtle shifts of the Allegheny Plateau, where the earth rises and falls in long, rhythmic swells that hold the morning mist until well past dawn. To the east, the jagged outline of the Allegheny Mountains occasionally haunts the horizon, a distant reminder of the rugged spine that anchors this inland region. The Peters Creek Cooridor serves as a vital artery for the local ecology, offering a sanctuary of dense woodland where the light filters through the canopy in thin, golden needles. Beyond the immediate banks, the land dips into the shadowed depression of Calamity Hollow, a place where the air cools quickly as the sun begins to retreat behind the ridge. Even Butlers Lake, resting six miles away, exerts a quiet influence on the humidity of the summer evenings, cooling the breeze that moves across the fields.

The historical identity of Large is inextricably bound to the industrial pulse that once fueled the growth of the surrounding valleys, leaving behind a legacy of hard work and practical ingenuity. While the heavy machinery of the past has largely vanished, the local economy remains anchored in the remnants of that era, favoring small-scale enterprise and the quiet maintenance of the infrastructure that supports the region. The people who live here carry the memory of coal and steel in the architecture of their homes and the layout of the old roads that trace the contours of the landscape. Life in Large proceeds with a deliberate, unadorned quality, marked by the changing seasons and the slow reclamation of the creek banks by native flora. It is a place where the silence of the woods is punctuated only by the occasional passage of a train or the rustle of leaves, grounding the day-to-day experience in the physical reality of the Pennsylvania soil.

About This Large Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Large, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.290329, -79.924517. 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 Large includes the ZIP code (15025), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), and school district assignment.

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.
