How to Use This Shippenville, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Shippenville occupies a quiet expanse of the high ground where the earth hums with the subterranean weight of the Appalachian plateaus. It lies 35.2 miles northeast of Butler, PA (from Butler, PA: bearing 40°T), and is situated 4.6 miles west-northwest of Clarion. Deer Creek carves a persistent, silver-threaded path through the local topography, its banks gathering the shadows of hardwood stands that shift from pale green in the spring to a deep, bruised copper by autumn. The air here holds a particular, sharp clarity, especially as the light thins in the late afternoon, casting long, geometric shadows across the fields that slope toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Allegheny Mountains. Residents often find their way to the quiet perimeter of Woodburn Park, where the stillness of the land offers a reprieve from the persistent hum of the modern transit corridors nearby.

Shippenville maintains a character forged in the legacy of the nineteenth-century iron furnaces that once drew fire and labor from the surrounding timber and ore. This industrial heritage has long since faded into the quietude of a regional commerce defined by independent enterprise and the steady, rhythmic persistence of small-scale agriculture. The memory of those early, smoke-filled days remains in the sturdy foundation of the local architecture, though the pace of life now favors the slow turning of the seasons over the frantic pulse of the mills. Those seeking a deeper quiet often travel the few miles to the edge of Marie-Eileen Lake, where the water mirrors the sky with a mirror-glass intensity that seems to suspend time itself. While the echoes of the region's extractive past linger in the soil, the current life of Shippenville is defined by the patient endurance of its people and the steady, unchanging arc of the sun over the timbered ridges.

About This Shippenville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Shippenville, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.25034, -79.45949. 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 Shippenville includes the ZIP code (16254), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Clarion County (Clarion), and school district assignment (Keystone 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.
