How to Use This Sumneytown, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Sumneytown, Pennsylvania

Sumneytown is a locality in Montgomery County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 480. The population density is 18.0 people per km². Sumneytown is located at 40.3290°N, 75.4510°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 18054, 18084.

Sumneytown occupies a quiet fold of the Pennsylvania landscape, defined by the persistent, low-slung movement of Unami Creek. It lies 5.1 miles west-northwest of Franconia, PA (from Franconia, PA: bearing 287°T), and is situated 7.7 miles north-northeast of Limerick. The terrain here is shaped by the subtle rise and fall of the earth, creating a basin where the air holds the cool, damp weight of the nearby Green Lane Reservoir. Sunlight catches the limestone outcroppings and the deep, dark soil of the Rogers-Hiester Open Space, lending the fields a muted, earthen luster that shifts from slate gray to burnt ochre as the afternoon wanes. Though the Appalachian Mountains loom over the distant horizon, they remain a mere suggestion of height against the sky, leaving the immediate environment to the quiet authority of the creek and the dense, encroaching woodland.

Sumneytown retains the architectural bones of its eighteenth-century origins, where stone foundations and timber frames reflect a history rooted in the grit of colonial enterprise and early milling. The local economy, once tethered to the water-driven industry of the creek, has softened into a slower, more deliberate pace, favoring small-scale commerce and the preservation of historic structures over rapid expansion. Residents move with the measured tempo of a place where the seasons dictate the rhythm of the day, far removed from the clamor of larger, industrial centers. While the Old Dutchman Trail remains a distant destination for those seeking a longer trek, the immediate surroundings of Sumneytown offer a singular, grounded stillness that defines its character for those who call it home.

About This Sumneytown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Sumneytown, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.32899, -75.451011. 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 Sumneytown includes the ZIP code (18054, 18084), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Montgomery County (Norristown), 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.
