How to Use This Slab, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Slab, Pennsylvania

Slab is a locality in York County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 145. Slab is located at 39.7962°N, 76.3363°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 17314.

Slab occupies a modest elevation where the land folds into a series of long, quiet ridges that define the inland topography. It lies 16.8 miles south of Lancaster, PA (from Lancaster, PA: bearing 186°T), and is situated 9.1 miles north-northeast of Street. The air here holds the weight of damp earth and decaying leaves, particularly near Anderson Run, which cuts a narrow, shadowed path through the local limestone just a mile from the center of town. Beyond the immediate perimeter, the landscape stretches into a series of subtle rises that eventually flatten into the broader plains of the region. A short distance to the north, the water of Muddy Run Recreation Reservoir mirrors the heavy, gray skies of late autumn, while the more distant horizon offers a faint, blurred suggestion of the Appalachian Mountains, visible only when the atmosphere clears after a sustained rain.

Slab maintains a quiet adherence to its industrial heritage, a legacy built upon the extraction and refinement that once defined much of the surrounding territory. While the heavy machinery of the past has largely fallen silent, the rhythm of the place remains tethered to a methodical, blue-collar pace that favors persistence over rapid transformation. Residents often find their way toward the Conowingo Pond Nature Preserve on weekends, a space that serves as a necessary buffer against the encroaching silence of shuttered storefronts. The influence of Grubb Hollow continues to shape the local drainage and microclimate, creating pockets of cool, shaded air that persist even through the height of summer. Life in Slab is defined by these small, persistent connections to the land, where the shadow of the past is not a burden, but a quiet companion to the daily labor of those who remain.

About This Slab Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Slab, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 39.796214, -76.336348. 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 Slab includes the ZIP code (17314), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of York County (York), and school district assignment.

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.
