How to Use This Reese, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Reese, Pennsylvania

Reese is a locality in Blair County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 39. The population density is 103.1 people per km². Reese is located at 40.4345°N, 78.3022°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 16648.

Reese maintains a quiet composure along the banks of the Frankstown Branch Juniata River, where the water moves with a deliberate, muscular grace toward the horizon. It lies 7.6 miles southeast of Altoona, PA (from Altoona, PA: bearing 140°T), and is situated 4.6 miles east of Hollidaysburg. The landscape surrounding Reese is defined by the rigid, ancient spine of the Allegheny Mountains, which rise in the distance to frame the sky in shades of bruised plum and charcoal. To the east, the terrain dips into the basin known as The Loop, a shallow bowl of earth that holds the morning mist long after the sun has climbed above the tree line. Just a mile away, the dense growth of State Game Land 147 offers a sanctuary of oak and hemlock, providing a wilder contrast to the cleared fields that define the immediate geography. When the light hits the water at dusk, the surface of the river turns to hammered copper, reflecting the slow, rhythmic pulse of a place that measures time in the shifting of sediment and the turning of leaves.

Reese carries the weight of a regional heritage built on the extraction of resources and the movement of goods, a legacy etched into the very soil of the Allegheny Plateau. The local economy persists with a steady, pragmatic focus, drawing strength from the proximity of the river and the access to the timber and mineral wealth that historically anchored settlements in this part of Pennsylvania. Residents often venture toward Canoe Creek Lake to find a stillness that mirrors the quiet industry of their daily labor, watching the water settle into a glassy silence. Life in Reese follows the cadence of the seasons, characterized by a certain stoic independence that has survived the transition from older, labor-intensive industries to the modern, smaller-scale enterprises that now dot the periphery. There is a singular clarity to the air here, a crispness that sharpens the edges of the barns and the long, straight stretches of road, reminding those who live here that they are anchored in a land defined by its own rugged, inland gravity.

About This Reese Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Reese, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.434517, -78.302234. 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 Reese includes the ZIP code (16648), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Blair County (Hollidaysburg), and school district assignment (Hollidaysburg Area 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.
