How to Use This Nuangola, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Nuangola holds the stillness of an inland basin, defined by the quiet presence of Nuangola Lake and the persistent, low-voiced movement of the Nuangola Outlet. It lies 3.7 miles south-southeast of Nanticoke, PA (from Nanticoke, PA: bearing 158°T), and is situated 8.0 miles southwest of Wilkes-Barre. The landscape here unfolds in broken, forested ridges that suggest the distant, hazy blue of the Pocono Mountains on the horizon, while the terrain itself remains defined by the rugged, rocky soil characteristic of the broader region. Sunlight slants through the dense canopy of State Game Land 207, casting long, splintered shadows that seem to hold the heat of the afternoon even as the air cools. The lake acts as a dark, reflective mirror for the sky, its surface barely disturbed by the drift of autumnal leaves or the occasional ripple from the outlet’s path as it winds through the undergrowth.

Nuangola keeps a measured pace, built upon the foundation of an older, industrial era that once defined the nearby Wyoming Valley. While the heavy machinery of the past has long since quieted, the influence of that anthracite memory persists in the sturdy, deliberate architecture and the deep-rooted resilience of the local character. Economic life here has transitioned away from the extraction of resources toward a quieter, residential existence that values the proximity to preserved woodlands and the slow turnover of the seasons. Residents move with a recognition of the land’s history, finding a sense of continuity in the way the local life cycles align with the seasonal rhythms of the forest and the water, far removed from the frantic pace of the coastal plains.

About This Nuangola Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Nuangola, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.155082, -75.978256. 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 Nuangola includes the ZIP code (18707), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Luzerne County (Wilkes-Barre), and school district assignment (Crestwood 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.
