How to Use This Patton, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Patton emerges from the high, uneven terrain of the Allegheny Plateau as a place where the earth seems to hold its breath against the distant, hazy blue of the Allegheny Mountains. It lies 15.6 miles west-northwest of Altoona, PA (from Altoona, PA: bearing 301°T), and is situated 7.1 miles east-southeast of Northern Cambria. Little Chest Creek carves a persistent, silver path through the landscape, its waters cold and clear as they navigate the basin defined by the nearby Driscoll Hollow. The air here carries a crisp, mineral quality, particularly during the transition from afternoon to dusk, when the light flattens against the slope and turns the local architecture into silhouettes of gray and brick. Residents often gather at the Cambria Heights Athletic Field, a space that serves as a terrestrial anchor for the surrounding woodland and steep, irregular fields. The weather remains a constant, quiet companion, shifting from the damp, heavy greens of summer to the stark, skeletal clarity of winter, when the stillness of the plateau feels absolute.

Patton bears the marks of a history deeply rooted in the extraction of coal, a legacy that once dictated the pulse of the local economy and defined the grit of the daily labor force. While the industry that once fueled the growth of the region has receded, the town maintains a steady, deliberate pace, reflecting the persistence of those who remained. Life here is measured by the changing seasons and the proximity to the quiet waters of the Carrolltown Reservoir, which provides a serene counterpoint to the more rugged, industrial echoes of the past. The character of the people is forged by this intersection of labor and land, resulting in a community that values the unadorned and the reliable. Even as modern demands alter the landscape, the fundamental rhythm of the locale remains tied to the solid, enduring ground of the plateau, where the echoes of a century of coal mining have finally softened into the quiet hum of a present-day Pennsylvania life.

Detailed location data for Patton includes the ZIP code (15301, 16668), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Cambria County (Ebensburg), and school district assignment (Cambria Heights 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.
