How to Use This Wheatland, Pennsylvania Map

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

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 Wheatland, Pennsylvania

Wheatland is a locality in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, United States. Wheatland is located at 40.0395°N, 76.3511°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP codes: 16159, 16161, 17603.

Wheatland sits upon the heavy, dark loam of the inland plateau, where the landscape stretches out in a series of disciplined, earthen swells. It lies 2.4 miles west of Lancaster, PA (from Lancaster, PA: bearing 273°T), and is situated 3.1 miles south-southeast of East Hempfield. The flow of Brubaker Run defines the local topography, carving a persistent, narrow path through the soil that dictates the orientation of streets and the placement of long-standing foundations. To the west, the silhouettes of the Blue Ridge Mountains etch a jagged, violet hem against the twilight, their distance offering a quiet permanence to the horizon. Within the immediate perimeter, Wheatland Hills Park provides a necessary stretch of green, where the light at dusk settles into the tall grasses with a muted, honeyed warmth, softening the edges of the industrial grit that has long defined the local character.

History in Wheatland is measured in the iron-scented memories of the mills and the stubborn endurance of the laborers who built their lives around the forge. The economy, once tethered to the rhythmic thrum of heavy production, has shifted, leaving behind a quietude that permeates the brick facades and the empty, echoing bays of former warehouses. Residents often look toward the nearby expanse of Grabb Lake for a reprieve from the heat of the summer months, or they traverse the wider regional geography toward the Conejohela Valley (historic) to trace the older, agricultural lineages of the land. Life maintains a steady, deliberate pace here, moving with the same gravity as the water in the creek, indifferent to the frantic speed of the outside world.

About This Wheatland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Wheatland, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 40.039542, -76.351072. 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 Wheatland includes the ZIP code (16159, 16161, 17603), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of Lancaster County (Lancaster), 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.
