Explore South Uniontown, Pennsylvania, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for South Uniontown, 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 Uniontown.
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.

South Uniontown emerges from the landscape as a quiet collection of streets defined by the steady, unobserved movement of Coal Lick Run carving its path through the earth. It lies 19.0 miles south of Rostraver, PA (from Rostraver, PA: bearing 170°T), and is situated 1.7 miles west-southwest of Uniontown. This waterway serves as the primary pulse of the local geography, cutting through a terrain that feels distant from the jagged drama of the Allegheny Mountains, which remain a faint, hazy suggestion on the far horizon. Residents walk the paths of Areford Community Park, where the light at dusk flattens against the grass, casting long, thin shadows that seem to anchor the neighborhood to the soil. Beyond the immediate periphery, the dense, green canopy of Forbes State Forest provides a permanent backdrop, its presence cooling the air and reminding those who live here of the vast, quiet wilderness that begins only a few miles away.
South Uniontown bears the subtle, enduring imprint of an industrial heritage that shaped the region’s architecture and the rigid, functional layout of its residential blocks. The economy here, long tethered to the extraction and movement of resources that once powered the nation, has settled into a slower, more deliberate pace, leaving the community to find its own rhythm in the wake of those busier years. Local life is punctuated by the proximity of White Rock Hollow, a basin that holds the cool, damp air of the morning, and the nearby Mile Trail, which offers a quiet passage for those seeking to move through the landscape. Life here is measured in the changing color of the leaves and the quiet maintenance of a place that values its own privacy, standing as a sturdy, grounded entity far from the clamor of the coast or the density of larger, more frantic urban centers.

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.
