How to Use This Paint, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Paint carries the persistent, rhythmic pulse of the Allegheny Plateau, where the waterway known as Paint Creek carves a deliberate path through the earth. It lies 6.9 miles southeast of Johnstown, PA (from Johnstown, PA: bearing 146°T), and is situated 7.4 miles southeast of Westmont. The air here holds a crisp, high-altitude clarity, filtered by the dense canopy of Babcock State Forest just seven miles away. To the west, the distant silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains form a jagged, permanent border against the horizon, anchoring the landscape in deep time. Nearer to the center of life in Paint, the terrain softens into the quiet, shaded depression of Soap Hollow, where the light at dusk settles in heavy, bruised purples against the limestone outcrops.

Industrial echoes define the structural character of Paint, reflecting a legacy of coal and steel that once dictated the pace of every household. While the regional economy has shifted from its extractive roots, the remnants of that era persist in the sturdy, unadorned architecture and the deliberate, pragmatic habits of the residents. On quiet afternoons, the local focus drifts toward the Windber Borough Playground, a modest patch of activity that serves as a common ground for the neighborhood. For those seeking the solitude of the woods, the Lost Turkey Trail offers a passage into the interior, while the nearby White Tail Falls provides a singular, cold rush of water that serves as a reminder of the region’s relentless, hidden vitality.
