How to Use This Roscoe, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Roscoe occupies a narrow, industrious shelf of land where the earth yields to the steady, deep-channeled curve of the Monongahela River. It lies 6.6 miles south-southwest of Rostraver, PA (from Rostraver, PA: bearing 208°T), and is situated 4.9 miles south-southeast of Monessen. The town clings to the slopes that rise sharply from the water’s edge, where the damp, cool air of the river valley often clings to the brick facades of older buildings as if reluctant to surrender to the morning sun. A mile inland, the terrain folds into the shadowed depths of Wood Run Hollow, a quiet indentation in the landscape that separates the residential streets from the broader, rugged contours of the region. Even on the clearest days, the distant, hazy blue silhouettes of the Allegheny Mountains remain a faint promise on the horizon, reminding those who walk the quiet pavement of the vast, broken plateau that defines this corner of the state.

Roscoe maintains the quiet gravity of a place that once measured its pulse by the heavy machinery and river-borne commerce of the industrial era. Local life centers on the remnants of this labor, with Five Town Park providing a modest, green anchor for the neighborhood where the echoes of past productivity have softened into the routine of daily maintenance. While the economy has shifted away from the frantic pace of the iron and coal trades, a lingering industriousness persists in the way the residents tend to their properties and navigate the steep, winding access roads. The occasional sound of a barge pushing slowly against the current of the Monongahela River serves as a rhythmic reminder of the geography that birthed the locality, grounding the modern day in the same steady, moving water that has defined the site since its founding.

About This Roscoe Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Roscoe, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.079518, -79.865602. 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 Roscoe includes the ZIP code (15477), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Washington County (Washington), and school district assignment (California 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.
