How to Use This Rockdale Acres, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Rockdale Acres, Pennsylvania

Rockdale Acres is a locality in Crawford County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 61. The population density is 27.0 people per km². Rockdale Acres is located at 41.7670°N, 79.9237°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 16403.

Rockdale Acres defines itself through the quiet persistence of the Allegheny Plateau, where the earth rises in slow, deliberate swells of pasture and dense woodland. It lies 14.6 miles northeast of Meadville, PA (from Meadville, PA: bearing 53°T), and is situated 7.3 miles east-southeast of Cambridge Springs. Muddy Creek carves a narrow, serpentine path through the lowlands just a mile away, its dark waters reflecting the heavy, bruised clouds that often drift across the sky before autumn storms. The air here holds a crisp, earthen weight, smelling of damp soil and decaying leaves, a scent that remains unchanged as the light shifts from the pale gold of morning to the long, violet shadows of dusk. Beyond the immediate tree lines, the landscape settles into a rhythmic expanse of fields that seem to hold their breath in the stillness, waiting for the seasonal turn of the weather.

Rockdale Acres retains the spare, utilitarian character of a place built on the steady output of the soil and the labor of those who cleared it. The Erie National Wildlife Refuge sits just a mile from the center of the locality, serving as a vast, protected buffer that keeps the encroaching sprawl of modern commerce at a respectful distance. While the distant Appalachian Mountains appear as a mere ink-smudge on the horizon, the local economy remains anchored to a slower, more deliberate pace, favoring the maintenance of equipment and the management of timber over the frantic turnover of urban industry. Life here moves with the predictable cadence of the seasons, a quiet endurance that finds its clearest expression in the way the local residents observe the slow migration of birds toward the marshes or the way the frost first bites into the edges of the harvest fields.

About This Rockdale Acres Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Rockdale Acres, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.767002, -79.923665. 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 Rockdale Acres includes the ZIP code (16403), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Crawford County (Meadville), and school district assignment (Penncrest 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.
