Explore Richfield, Pennsylvania, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Richfield, 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 Richfield.
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.

Richfield emerges from the landscape as a collection of quiet dwellings and sturdy agricultural outbuildings set against the backdrop of a temperate, inland plateau. It lies 29.5 miles northwest of West Hanover, PA (from West Hanover, PA: bearing 319°T), and is situated 15.2 miles west-southwest of Selinsgrove. The West Branch Mahantango Creek traces a path through the low-lying terrain, its waters carving a steady, rhythmic silver line that defines the local topography. Beyond the immediate fields, the distant silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains marks the horizon with a jagged, immutable presence, while the nearby Black Dog Valley offers a subtle dip in the earth’s crust that catches the long, amber light of late afternoon. Residents often seek the stillness of Basom Park, where the air holds the scent of damp soil and the seasonal transition of deciduous leaves, providing a reprieve from the persistent labor of the surrounding acres.
Richfield sustains itself through an economy deeply rooted in the soil, where the heritage of small-scale farming and local commerce continues to dictate the pace of the day. The influence of early settlers remains visible in the structure of the older barns and the layout of the roads that follow the natural contours of the land rather than the geometry of a grid. While the East Boyer Trail draws those who favor the solitude of the woods, the proximity to Pa-638 Reservoir offers a secondary, quiet expanse of water that reflects the changing sky. Life in Richfield moves with the deliberate patience of a clock, favoring the reliability of established routines and the quiet continuity of a place that understands the gravity of its own geography.

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.
