Explore Lima, Pennsylvania, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lima, 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 Lima.
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.

Lima sits upon a landscape defined by the persistent, quiet movement of Dismal Run as it carves a path through the woodland and soil. It lies 2.8 miles south-southwest of Upper Providence, PA (from Upper Providence, PA: bearing 200°T), and is situated 8.9 miles west of Upper Darby. The terrain here avoids the dramatic peaks of the Appalachian Mountains, which remain a distant, hazy silhouette far to the west, opting instead for a modest, undulating topography that catches the slanted, golden light of the late afternoon. This verdant expanse is punctuated by the quiet reaches of County Land, where the earth holds the damp, cool scent of decaying leaves and moss, grounding the atmosphere in the steady, rhythmic pulse of the inland Pennsylvania woods.
History in Lima is written in the slow transition of agrarian roots into the measured pace of modern commerce and institutional life. The shadow of the nearby Chester Valley influences the regional character, lending a sense of continuity to the land as it stretches toward the horizon. Residents often find their way toward the still, reflective waters of Broomalls Lake, a local touchstone that mirrors the changing seasons with a clarity that defines the neighborhood’s identity. Life here moves with a deliberate, unhurried cadence, where the echoes of past industry have settled into a quiet, functional existence, maintaining a steady equilibrium between the wilder fringes of the creek beds and the structured habits of those who call the area home.

Detailed location data for Lima includes the ZIP code (19063), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Delaware County (Media), and school district assignment (Rose Tree Media 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.
