How to Use This Newtown, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Newtown reveals itself through the steady, patient passage of Thompson Run as it carves a path through the landscape, defining the character of the ground it touches. It lies 1.4 miles west-southwest of Monroeville, PA (from Monroeville, PA: bearing 257°T), and is situated 9.7 miles east of Pittsburgh. The earth here holds a quiet weight, marked by the presence of Bellwood Park where the trees stand as silent witnesses to the changing light of the afternoon. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains offer a stark, jagged promise of height, though they remain far beyond the immediate reach of the horizon. The air carries the scent of damp soil and ancient stone, a physical reminder of the terrain that sits far inland, miles away from any salt or tide. At dusk, the quality of the light softens against the brick facades, turning the gray stone into something warmer, as if the buildings themselves were absorbing the day’s final heat to sustain them through the coming night.

Newtown maintains a rhythm rooted in the agricultural and colonial legacies that first broke this soil, transforming the wilderness into a place of commerce and order. While the local economy has shifted from the labor of early farms toward a contemporary pace, the historic core remains a testament to the endurance of its original design. Residents often find their way toward B Y Recreational Park Lake, four miles out, where the water mirrors the sky and provides a brief reprieve from the demands of the modern clock. Life in Newtown moves with a deliberate cadence, influenced by the memory of the deep valleys like Panther Hollow that lie to the west. This is a place where the work of the past—the brickwork, the street layouts, and the preservation of open land—continues to shape how the people go about their business, ensuring that the legacy of the region remains visible in every turn of the road.

About This Newtown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Newtown, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.228344, -74.932293. 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 Newtown includes the ZIP code (17981, 15145, 18702), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Allegheny County (Pittsburgh), and school district assignment (Council Rock 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.
