How to Use This Slatington, Pennsylvania Map

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

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.

Slatington clings to the steep, irregular terrain where the earth rises sharply to meet the sky, defined by the persistent, cold pulse of Trout Creek carving its way through the bedrock. It lies 7.4 miles northwest of Northampton, PA (from Northampton, PA: bearing 306°T), and is situated 9.7 miles northwest of Catasauqua. The landscape here is characterized by a rugged, vertical orientation, where the ground is less a flat expanse and more a series of sudden inclines and shadowed depressions that lead the eye toward the distant, hazy silhouette of the Pocono Mountains on the horizon. At the West End Playground, the air carries a crisp, mineral sharpness, a reminder of the quiet, expansive woodlands that stretch out toward the Delaware-Lehigh State Experimental Forest, while the nearby expanse of Nis Hollow deepens the sense of a world folded into itself. Even on the brightest afternoons, the light catches the uneven textures of the hills, casting long, deliberate shadows that transform the topography into a study of depth and geological patience.

Slatington bears the weight of its industrial lineage in the very grain of its architecture, a legacy forged in the deep, dark veins of slate that once fueled a robust regional economy and drew laborers from across the Atlantic. The rhythm of daily life here remains tethered to the stoic resilience of those who worked the quarries, leaving behind a physical environment marked by sharp angles and enduring stone foundations that seem to resist the softening effects of time. While the industrial roar has long since faded into a distant memory, the town maintains a steady, deliberate pace, far removed from the frantic motion of more crowded latitudes. On quiet days, one might wander toward the periphery where the stillness of Frey Pond offers a momentary reprieve, reflecting a sky that feels immense and unobstructed above the ridge-and-valley terrain. It is a place where the history of labor is not merely documented but felt in the heavy, reliable masonry of the buildings and the way the shadows linger in the narrow streets as evening approaches.

About This Slatington Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Slatington, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.748428, -75.611853. 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 Slatington includes the ZIP code (18080), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Lehigh County (Allentown), and school district assignment (Northern Lehigh 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.
