How to Use This Lucerne Mines, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Lucerne Mines occupies a landscape where the earth seems to hold the weight of its own subterranean gravity. It lies 4.3 miles south of Indiana, PA (from Indiana, PA: bearing 179°T), and is situated 8.3 miles southeast of Armstrong Township. Yellow Creek carves a persistent, narrow path through the terrain, its waters reflecting a sky that often hangs heavy and gray above the surrounding woods. To the horizon, the distant silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains offer a jagged boundary to the world, while closer at hand, the terrain softens into the quiet, terrestrial basin of Spruce Hollow. Lucerne Park provides a green, quiet pause in the landscape, a place where the wind moves through the grass with a dry, insistent sound, and the light at dusk settles in long, bruised purples over the uneven ground.

Lucerne Mines carries the quiet, lingering imprint of coal extraction, a history that defines the very shape of the neighborhood and the rhythm of the life remaining here. The economy shifted long ago from the feverish extraction of fuel to a more static, reflective existence, leaving behind a place that exists in the stillness following a great, noisy labor. Nearby, Cherry Run Lake remains a constant, silent presence, its surface undisturbed by the heavy machinery that once dictated the local pulse. People move through their days here with a deliberate economy of motion, shaped by a geography that asks for little and offers the steady, unadorned company of the Pennsylvania earth.

About This Lucerne Mines Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lucerne Mines, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.558956, -79.151145. 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 Lucerne Mines includes the ZIP code (15754, 15748), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Indiana County (Indiana), and school district assignment (Homer-Center 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.
