2010 Map of Pittsfield West

About this map

Hancock Shaker Village and the western edge of Pittsfield anchor this landscape, where the Berkshires' industrial past and recreational identity converge. The terrain is defined by the high ridges of Yokun Ridge and Osceola Mountain, which drop sharply toward the developed valley floor. Long-standing local landmarks like the Bousquet Ski Area and Catamount Ski Area sit adjacent to the Pittsfield Municipal Airport, illustrating the multi-use nature of the foothills. Water dominates the northern and central sections, with Onota Lake and Richmond Pond serving as major geographic centers. Historically significant sites, including Saint Josephs Cemetery and the Love of Peace Cemetery, offer specific points of interest for genealogists tracing families in the Barkerville and Stearnsville neighborhoods.
