How to Use This Thorndale, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Thorndale, Pennsylvania

Thorndale is a locality in Sullivan County, Pennsylvania, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,669. The population density is 760.8 people per km². Thorndale is located at 40.0010°N, 75.7517°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 19335, 18626, 19372.

Thorndale occupies a landscape defined by the persistent, quiet passage of Glass Creek, which carves a path through the earth less than a mile from the center of the settlement. It lies 26.4 miles northwest of Nanticoke, PA (from Nanticoke, PA: bearing 305°T), and is situated 30.6 miles west-northwest of Wilkes-Barre. The terrain surrounding Thorndale rises into modest, verdant elevations that echo the distant, hazy silhouette of the Appalachian Mountains visible on the far horizon. A short distance away, the cascading waters of Dutchman Falls provide a rhythmic, percussive backdrop to the stillness of the woods, while the calm surface of Glass Creek Pond reflects the changing light of the seasons. The land here feels ancient and settled, with the dense, shadowed canopy of State Game Land 013 bordering the edges of the neighborhood, offering a refuge where the air stays cool and heavy with the scent of damp loam and pine.

History in Thorndale is marked by the steady industry of those who first harnessed the local waterways and cleared the thickets to establish a foothold in the basin. While the deep, industrial echoes of the region’s past remain in the masonry of older structures, the local economy has shifted toward a more modern pulse, balancing the remnants of trade with the steady movement of residents traveling toward the nearby Pole Bridge Trail. The inhabitants of Thorndale maintain a pace that favors deliberate action, often found wandering the paths near Black Hollow or observing the way the afternoon sun catches the slate-gray stones of the creek bed. Life here remains tethered to the physical reality of the Pennsylvania interior, where the turn of the day is measured not by grand events, but by the subtle, golden shift of shadows across the fields and the persistent, low-frequency hum of a landscape that has long since learned how to sustain itself.

About This Thorndale Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Thorndale, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.000964, -75.751652. 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 Thorndale includes the ZIP code (19335, 18626, 19372), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Sullivan County (Laporte), and school district assignment (Coatesville 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.
