How to Use This South Waverly, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Waverly stretches across a landscape defined by the persistent, narrow path of Dry Brook as it carves through the local terrain. It lies 15.3 miles east-southeast of Elmira, NY (from Elmira, NY: bearing 115°T), and is situated 1.7 miles northwest of Sayre. The earth here holds a quiet weight, marked by the nearby Chemung Valley where the ground levels into a basin of fertile promise. Only a mile away, the surface of Dodge Pond offers a stillness that mirrors the changing sky, undisturbed by the rush of distant commerce. The air carries the scent of damp soil and ancient stone, grounding South Waverly in a reality far from the restless energy of the coast. While the Appalachian Mountains remain a distant, hazy silhouette on the far horizon, the immediate land is defined by the intimate, low-lying contours of the plateau.

History in South Waverly pulses through the endurance of its modest infrastructure and the steady, unadorned rhythm of its daily labor. Residents often gather at the Muldoon Park Gazebo, a central point where the passage of time is marked not by grand monuments, but by the shifting quality of light across the grass. Economic life here has long been tethered to the pragmatic needs of the region, favoring the resilience of local trade over the volatility of distant markets. The character of South Waverly is shaped by this measured pace, where every porch light and street corner speaks to a continuity of purpose. It is a place that asks for little, yet provides a firm foundation for those who move through its quiet, hardworking streets.

About This South Waverly Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of South Waverly, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 41.997574, -76.537166. 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 Waverly includes the ZIP code (18840), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Bradford County (Towanda), and school district assignment (Sayre Area 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.
