Explore Muse, 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 Muse, 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 Muse.
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.

Muse occupies a quiet stretch of the Allegheny Plateau where the land rises and falls in long, muscular swells of earth. It lies 4.8 miles south-southwest of South Fayette, PA (from South Fayette, PA: bearing 202°T), and is situated 9.0 miles west-southwest of Mount Lebanon. The horizon remains dominated by the dense, muted silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains, which loom ninety-one miles away like a distant, hazy memory of granite and shadow. Within the immediate landscape, the moisture of the air clings to the skin, cooling the afternoon as light filters through the canopy near Holy Rosary Park. Two miles to the east, the steady, unassuming flow of Millers Run carves a path through the soil, while the waters of Morganza Reservoir hold a mirror to the bruised purple clouds of an approaching dusk. This terrain, marked by the deep, shadowed creases of Reissing Hollow, possesses a gravity that demands a slow, steady pace from those who traverse its slopes.
Muse grew from the deep, subterranean ambitions of the coal industry, a history that remains etched into the very soil and the architectural character of the neighborhood. The economy once drew its vitality from the dark veins of the earth, leaving behind a legacy of resilience that persists in the quiet, methodical rhythm of daily life. Today, the soot-stained intensity of the past has softened into a steady, modest existence, where the local identity is defined by a deep-seated connection to the land rather than the clamor of external commerce. The influence of early immigrant labor still lingers in the sturdy, unadorned brickwork of the older houses, standing as quiet witnesses to a time when the whistle of the mine dictated the waking hours. Life in Muse proceeds with a deliberate, grounded quality, where the primary concerns are the changing seasons and the slow, inevitable turn of the calendar.

Detailed location data for Muse includes the ZIP code (15350, 15317), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Washington County (Washington), and school district assignment (Canon-McMillan 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.
