Explore Newtown, 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 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 occupies a quiet expanse of the Pennsylvania interior where the earth rises and falls in measured, ancient swells. It lies 26.6 miles west-northwest of State College, PA (from State College, PA: bearing 288°T), and is situated 9.6 miles south-southeast of Clearfield. The character of the landscape is defined by the steady presence of Morgan Run, which carves a modest path through the soil only a mile from the center, while the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains marks the horizon to the west. Broad stretches of woodland, including the expansive Moshannon State Forest, exert a cooling influence on the air, and the dense, green reach of State Game Land 098 offers a sanctuary for the local fauna. When the light of late afternoon slants across the fields, it reveals a terrain that feels ancient and deliberate, far removed from the press of the coastline, holding the stillness of the deep interior in its heavy, shaded hollows.
Newtown holds the weight of a long-settled history within its grid of buildings and the quiet industry of its residents. While commerce and daily life have evolved from their agrarian roots into a modern rhythm, the echoes of earlier eras remain in the architecture and the deliberate pace of the streets. Beyond the immediate vicinity, the geography is marked by the presence of Crowns Nest Hollow, a basin that channels the seasonal runoff, and the occasional traveler might find respite near the waters of Emigh Lake. Life in Newtown is marked by this intersection of natural endurance and human persistence, where the changing seasons dictate the tempo of the day, and the land itself—rugged and enduring—continues to shape the identity of those who make their lives upon it.

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.
