How to Use This West Pittsburg, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 West Pittsburg, Pennsylvania

West Pittsburg is a locality in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, United States. It is a small community with a population of 734. The population density is 413.1 people per km².

West Pittsburg bears the quiet gravity of a landscape shaped by the persistent, unhurried flow of McKee Run. It lies 5.0 miles south of New Castle, PA (from New Castle, PA: bearing 190°T), and is situated 6.3 miles northwest of Ellwood City. The water carves a path through the earth, marking the terrain with a low-slung, deliberate grace that defines the character of the soil and the horizon. Beyond the immediate banks, the land stretches out in a series of broad, earthen swells, far removed from the reach of any distant coastline and grounded firmly in the interior of the continent. At the edge of the local grounds, Taylor Township Park provides a stillness where the air feels heavy with the scent of damp loam and the changing seasons, a stark contrast to the distant, jagged line of the Appalachian Mountains that barely ghost the far-off horizon.

West Pittsburg carries the echo of an industrious past, where the rhythm of labor once synchronized with the pulse of regional manufacturing. The local economy, having shifted over the decades, now maintains a steady, modest pace that honors the grit of its foundations. Residents navigate lives that move with the steady ticking of a clock, undisturbed by the rush of larger centers, yet connected to the broader regional identity of the plateau. For those who wander beyond the immediate vicinity, the geological drama of the Slippery Rock Creek Gorge, the quietude of Big Beaver Pond, and the sudden, vertical clarity of Homewood Falls offer a testament to the rugged, inland beauty that persists just outside the boundaries of daily work.

About This West Pittsburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of West Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.93284, -80.363398. 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 West Pittsburg includes the ZIP code (16160), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Lawrence County (New Castle), and school district assignment (New Castle 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.
