How to Use This Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Mount Pleasant emerges from the rolling terrain of the Allegheny Plateau where the horizon is defined by the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains. It lies 7.6 miles west-northwest of Pottsville, PA (from Pottsville, PA: bearing 283°T), and is situated 7.2 miles south-southeast of Mount Carmel. The landscape here is defined by a slow, rhythmic elevation, where the ground rises in quiet swells of woodland and cleared pasture. A mile away, the stillness of Crystal Reservoir holds the reflection of the sky, while the nearby trickle of Crystal Run carves a modest path through the earth, feeding the moisture that keeps the valley floor verdant. At the edge of the residential grid, Foster Township Community Park offers a flat expanse of green where the air feels heavy with the scent of damp soil and drying leaves. As the sun begins to retreat, the light catches the angles of the older architecture, casting long, thin shadows that stretch across the pavement, grounding the physical geography in a sense of enduring, quiet permanence.

Mount Pleasant grew from the grit and aspiration of the industrial era, when the labor of the coal and coke trades dictated the pulse of daily existence. The local economy has shifted since those early, soot-stained days, moving away from the heavy furnaces that once defined the regional skyline toward a more varied, modern commercial life. Walking the streets, one notices the sturdy brickwork of the older buildings, which stand as a physical record of the families who built their livelihoods here on the strength of their own hands. The pace of the day is marked by the movement of people attending to the tasks of a working life, balanced by the silence that settles over the neighborhood once the streetlights flicker to life. It is a place where the history of industry is not merely a memory but a foundation, visible in the solid, unpretentious structures that define the character of Mount Pleasant and the people who continue to call it home.

About This Mount Pleasant Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Mount Pleasant, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.150932, -79.543363. 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 Mount Pleasant includes the ZIP code (15301, 17340, 17019), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Schuylkill County (Pottsville), and school district assignment (Mount Pleasant 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.
