How to Use This York New Salem, Pennsylvania Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for York New Salem, 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 York New Salem.

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.

York New Salem occupies a quiet space upon the undulating farmland of south-central Pennsylvania, where the earth rises and falls in long, rhythmic swells. It lies 5.3 miles south of Shiloh, PA (from Shiloh, PA: bearing 176°T), and is situated 5.3 miles southwest of York. The horizon is defined by the distant, hazy silhouette of the Blue Ridge Mountains, which anchor the view to the west under the amber glow of a setting sun. A mile to the east, the waters of Codorus Creek carve a narrow, persistent path through the limestone-rich soil, feeding the moisture that keeps the surrounding pastures a deep, resilient green. Five miles away, the natural depression of Brush Valley creates a subtle shift in the air, allowing the evening chill to settle early over the fields. Nearer to the center of activity, the North Codorus Community Center provides a gathering point for the residents, serving as a quiet contrast to the vast, open sky that hangs heavy and clear above the silos and barns.

York New Salem maintains a character forged by generations of agrarian persistence and the steady, unpretentious labor of the Pennsylvania Dutch influence. The local economy remains anchored to the rhythms of the land, though the commute of modern life has quietly altered the pace of the morning departures toward nearby industrial hubs. History here is found not in grand monuments but in the sturdy brickwork of homes and the enduring lines of fence rows that have mapped the fields for decades. Four miles distant, the waters of Lake Redman provide a reflective stillness that mirrors the quietude of the local streets, where the passage of time is marked more by the changing colors of the wheat and corn than by the rush of the outside world. This is a place that values the weight of a handshake and the slow, deliberate work of maintaining a way of life that favors continuity over the noise of rapid expansion.

About This York New Salem Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of York New Salem, Pennsylvania. Coordinates: 39.901488, -76.789415. 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 York New Salem includes the ZIP code (17408, 17371), telephone area code (215, 223, 267, 272, 412, 445, 484, 570, 582, 610, 717, 724, 814, 835, 878), county seat of York County (York), 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.
