How to Use This Lilly, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Lilly occupies a rugged stretch of the Allegheny Plateau where the land rises in stubborn, layered folds toward the distant, hazy spine of the Allegheny Mountains. It lies 13.5 miles west-southwest of Altoona, PA (from Altoona, PA: bearing 242°T), and is situated 6.9 miles southeast of Ebensburg. The Little Conemaugh River carves a restless path through the terrain, its waters reflecting the charcoal gray of the low-hanging clouds that frequently stall against the ridges. Two miles from the village center, the still surface of Lily Number One Reservoir holds the sky in a quiet, dark mirror, while the descent into Christie Hollow marks the deeper, cooler recesses of the local topography. At Barker Street Playground, the metal swing sets and patches of worn earth serve as the immediate, grounded anchor for a landscape defined by the reach of ancient, sloping woodland and the persistent, downward pull of the gravity-fed streams.

Lilly emerged from the industrial necessity of the rail age, its identity forged in the soot and iron of a coal-rich corridor that once demanded everything from the earth beneath it. The economy here shifted long ago from the feverish extraction of the mines to a quieter, post-industrial existence, yet the architecture of the place remains marked by the sturdy, unadorned resilience of the families who built it. A lingering sense of self-reliance permeates the atmosphere, visible in the upkeep of the homes and the deliberate pace of those walking to the post office or the local shops. Even with the silence that now replaces the clamor of the coal cars, Lilly retains a singular, sharp clarity, as if the mountain air itself preserves the weight and gravity of its history against the slow erosion of time.

About This Lilly Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lilly, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.425906, -78.620018. 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 Lilly includes the ZIP code (15938), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Cambria County (Ebensburg), and school district assignment (Penn Cambria 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.
