How to Use This Pleasant Hill, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Pleasant Hill, Pennsylvania

Pleasant Hill is a locality in Cambria County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,926. The population density is 1551.8 people per km². Pleasant Hill is located at 40.3372°N, 76.4446°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 15701, 15906, 16123.

Pleasant Hill commands a position where the terrain rises in a series of deliberate, verdant swells, marking the transition toward the distant, hazy blue outlines of the Allegheny Mountains. It lies 2.4 miles north of Johnstown, PA (from Johnstown, PA: bearing 358°T), and is situated 3.5 miles north-northeast of Westmont. Laurel Run carves a narrow, persistent path through the local topography just a mile away, its waters moving with a quiet, persistent gravity toward the deeper recesses of the Conemaugh Gorge. Beyond the immediate clearings, the canopy of State Forest Lands deepens into a dense, emerald silence, while the proximity of White Tail Falls provides a rhythmic, percussive backdrop to the stillness of the afternoon. At the Middle Taylor Township Playground, the air often holds the crisp, metallic edge of the coming evening, a sensation that settles over the land long before the shadows actually stretch across the grass.

Pleasant Hill maintains a steady, industrious character that mirrors the broader legacy of the surrounding plateau, where the echoes of past mineral extraction have gradually softened into a quieter, modern pace. The life of the residents gravitates toward the intersection of private enterprise and the shared, open spaces that define the local landscape, such as the quiet utility of the Hinckston Run Reservoir nearby. There is a particular quality to the light here as it filters through the hardwoods, illuminating the modest, sturdy architecture that seems to have grown directly from the soil it occupies. While the Roger Mountain Trail invites those who seek the solitude of the higher ridges, the daily rhythm of Pleasant Hill remains anchored in the uncomplicated movement of people navigating the familiar streets between the forest edge and the center of their own small, self-contained world.

About This Pleasant Hill Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pleasant Hill, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.337172, -76.444595. 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 Pleasant Hill includes the ZIP code (15701, 15906, 16123), 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 (Cornwall-Lebanon 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.
