How to Use This South Union, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 South Union, Pennsylvania

South Union is a locality in Tioga County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,325. South Union is located at 41.5681°N, 76.9989°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 17765.

South Union emerges from the landscape as a collection of quiet clearings carved into the dense, brooding timber of the Pennsylvania interior. It lies 22.6 miles north of Williamsport, PA (from Williamsport, PA: bearing 0°T), and is situated 20.0 miles southeast of Wellsboro. The air here holds a crisp, mineral weight, smelling of damp loam and the slow decay of autumn leaves that carpet the earth in shades of ochre and burnt sienna. Only a mile away, the waters of Salt Spring Run carve a narrow, insistent path through the limestone, their movement providing a constant, low-frequency pulse beneath the stillness of the woods. Further out, the terrain rises into the rugged, shadowed folds of the Appalachian Mountains, which stand against the horizon like the jagged, violet spines of a sleeping beast, framing the horizon in a permanent, hazy distance.

Economic memory in South Union lingers in the quiet persistence of those who work the land, reflecting a heritage defined by the extraction of raw earth and the steady, unadorned labor of the interior plateau. The proximity of the McIntyre Wild Area, just two miles to the southwest, serves as a reminder of the vast, untamed reaches that define the local geography, offering a refuge where the modern world feels distant and thin. Residents move through their days with a measured, deliberate pace, mindful of the steep, uneven ground that resists easy taming. Life here is dictated by the turning of the seasons and the physical demands of a terrain that has remained largely indifferent to the frantic pace of the outside world, preserving a solitude that is as thick and enduring as the forest itself.

About This South Union Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of South Union, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.568131, -76.998855. 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 South Union includes the ZIP code (17765), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Tioga County (Wellsboro), 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.
