How to Use This Oakland, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

About Oakland, Pennsylvania

Oakland is a locality in Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,481. The population density is 406.4 people per km². Oakland is located at 40.3056°N, 78.8817°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 18847, 15260, 16137.

Oakland occupies a basin defined by the steady, persistent passage of Drinker Creek, which cuts through the soil with a quiet, persistent gravity. It lies 36.7 miles north of Dunmore, PA (from Dunmore, PA: bearing 2°T), and is situated 8.9 miles south-southeast of Windsor. The horizon remains wide and open, holding the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains at a remove that suggests both scale and solitude. Within the immediate landscape, the land rises in modest, grassy swells that catch the late afternoon light, casting long shadows across the fields that surround the central expanse of Oakland Park. The atmosphere here carries the crisp, clean scent of damp earth and cooling stone, a sensory reminder of the proximity to Brushville Lake, whose waters reflect the changing colors of the sky three miles to the north.

Industry and labor have long shaped the rhythm of life in Oakland, grounding the settlement in the practical legacies of Pennsylvania’s inland growth. Where once the focus lay on the extraction and movement of regional resources, the modern economy has shifted toward a quieter reliance on small-scale commerce and the stewardship of the surrounding terrain. Residents often find their way toward the local landmarks, such as the impressive descent of Bucks Falls, which serves as a seasonal focal point for those seeking the sound of rushing water. Daily existence in Oakland moves with a deliberate, measured pace, reflecting a history built on the confluence of land use and the enduring, fundamental necessity of the nearby waterways.
