How to Use This Masontown, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Masontown occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, winding course of Cats Run, which carves a path through the earth toward the broader drainage of the region. It lies 22.5 miles south-southwest of Rostraver, PA (from Rostraver, PA: bearing 193°T), and is situated 9.2 miles west-southwest of Leith-Hatfield. The terrain here is shaped by the subtle shifts of the Allegheny Plateau, where the horizon occasionally hints at the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains far to the east. A quiet stillness persists near the water, while the air carries the scent of damp soil and the deep, enduring shade cast by the foliage of Forbes State Forest, which waits only twelve miles away. Travelers might note the light as it catches the surface of Pond Four, a small, glassy stillness reflecting the gray-blue Pennsylvania sky, while the nearby slopes of Mundell Hollow offer a sheltered, low-lying contrast to the elevated fields that surround the local geography.

Masontown remains a place where the echoes of industrial labor linger in the brick architecture and the sturdy, unadorned character of the streets. Generations have built their lives upon the foundation of coal extraction and manufacturing, trades that once dictated the pulse of every morning and evening shift. At the center of daily recreation, Masontown Athletic Field provides a flat, open space for the rhythm of local gatherings and seasonal games, serving as a social anchor for those who remain. The legacy of these industries persists in the stubborn pride of the residents, whose lives are measured by the slow, deliberate pace of a region that has adapted to changing economies without losing its inherent sense of self.

About This Masontown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Masontown, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 39.846743, -79.899776. 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 Masontown includes the ZIP code (15461), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Fayette County (Uniontown), and school district assignment (Albert Gallatin Area 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.
