How to Use This Cornwall, New York Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Cornwall, New York. 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 to zoom in and out.

Click ⛶ Fullscreen to expand the map to fill your screen for a larger view. To return to the normal page view, press the Escape key on your keyboard, 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).

Drag the map to pan to any area of New York or beyond. Switch to Satellite view to see high-resolution aerial photography of Cornwall and surrounding areas, including streets, buildings, parks and waterways.

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. 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 Cornwall.

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 Cornwall, New York

Cornwall is a locality in Orange County, New York, United States. It has a population of 12,600. The population density is 280.0 people per km². Cornwall is located at 41.4364°N, 74.0321°W. It observes the Eastern Time (America/New_York) timezone. ZIP code: 12518.

Cornwall occupies a landscape defined by the quiet interplay of deep woodlands and the steady movement of inland water. It lies 2.8 miles south of New Windsor, NY (from New Windsor, NY: bearing 189°T), and is situated 9.6 miles northeast of Kiryas Joel. The terrain finds its definition in the shade of Black Rock Forest, where the canopy thickens and light filters through in long, pale shafts during the late afternoon. Residents often gather at Riverlight Park, a space that serves as a communal clearing beside the gentle flow of Moodna Creek. Rings Pond sits tranquil and still, reflecting the changing colors of the sky as day shifts into dusk. Beyond the immediate canopy, the earth dips into the quiet seclusion of Black Rock Hollow, creating a topography that feels both private and expansive. Cornwall preserves a legacy rooted in the steady development of a rural landscape that gradually transitioned into an residential retreat for those seeking distance from urban noise. Local industry and commerce evolved from early agricultural efforts to support a modern economy that favors small business and professional services. The rhythm of the work week here is measured by the passage of trains and the hum of traffic moving toward regional centers, yet the pace within the local streets remains grounded. Shops and offices populate the center, maintaining a functional existence that serves the daily needs of those living among the hills. The economic pulse of Cornwall is quiet, driven by a commitment to maintaining the character of the region while adapting to contemporary demands. Cornwall fosters a cultural identity that values the preservation of its natural surroundings and the quietude of its local landmarks. Visitors and residents alike may find themselves walking the Pipe Line Trail, which offers a path through the denser sections of the local terrain. For those seeking the drama of falling water, the path toward Buttermilk Falls provides a distinct experience of the regional geology. The cultural life of the area is often marked by seasonal gatherings that emphasize a shared appreciation for the changing landscape rather than large-scale spectacle. While the Appalachian Mountains remain a distant silhouette on the horizon, they define the scale of the world surrounding Cornwall, serving as a constant, looming backdrop to the activities of the day.

About This Cornwall Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Cornwall, New York — switch between views using the small square in the bottom left-hand corner of the map. Coordinates: 41.436404, -74.032108. Live weather conditions are sourced directly from the National Weather Service, with current observations and a 7-day forecast also powered by Open-Meteo. Real-time local news and world news feeds keep the page current, while a Wikipedia summary or an editorially written description provides background on Cornwall and Orange County.

Detailed location data for Cornwall includes the ZIP code (12518), telephone area code (845), county seat of Orange County (Goshen), and school district assignment. These are among the most commonly searched location details for any US city or town.

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 — ensuring the correct Cornwall is identified even where the name is shared across multiple counties or states. Population figures are sourced from the 2020 US Census.
