Printable Pennsylvania map
Pennsylvania ready to print: Harrisburg, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh and two more cities, with all 67 county borders inside the nearly rectangular state outline.
What prints
Pennsylvania prints as a broad rectangle with three irregular edges: the Delaware River zigzagging down the east side, the short Lake Erie shoreline at the top left, and the arc of the Delaware border at the bottom right corner, drawn as a 12-mile radius circle around New Castle. The other borders (the 42nd parallel with New York, the Mason–Dixon Line with Maryland and West Virginia, and the Ohio line) are straight. All 67 counties appear as thin grey lines; the western counties are roughly square while the eastern and central ones follow ridgelines and rivers. Harrisburg carries the capital star on the Susquehanna, and the Major cities layer adds Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Allentown and Reading.
Page orientation
Print landscape. The state is about 280 miles across and about 160 miles from top to bottom, so it fits a landscape Letter or A4 sheet with a comfortable margin. In portrait the map shrinks to about half its possible size, and the small southeastern counties around Philadelphia (Delaware, Montgomery, Bucks) become hard to read.
What is labeled
- PA, when Abbreviations is switched on.
- Harrisburg, the capital, on the east bank of the Susquehanna.
- Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Allentown and Reading on the Major cities layer.
- All 67 county lines, from Erie County on the lake to Philadelphia County at the southeast corner.
- The Delaware River border with New York and New Jersey, the Mason–Dixon Line on the south, and the Lake Erie shore.
The Susquehanna, Allegheny, Monongahela and Ohio rivers are not drawn on the plain print, and county names are omitted. The sheet therefore works well for exercises: mark the point at Pittsburgh where the Allegheny and Monongahela meet to form the Ohio, trace the Mason–Dixon Line, or label Allegheny, Philadelphia and Dauphin counties. The county map is the answer key. The blank Pennsylvania map has no counties or cities at all.
