How to Use This Amagon, Arkansas Map

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

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.

Amagon emerges from the flat, alluvial expanse of the Arkansas landscape as a quiet grid defined by the reach of the sun and the steady, seasonal rhythms of the soil. It lies 29.9 miles southwest of Jonesboro, AR (from Jonesboro, AR: bearing 230°T), and is situated 10.1 miles east-southeast of Newport. The horizon remains broad and unbroken, save for the occasional silhouette of a distant grain silo or the dense, dark lines of timber that mark the banks of the Cache River just a mile to the west. In the stillness of the afternoon, the air holds a heavy, humid warmth that seems to amplify the rustle of dry stalks, while the light at dusk turns the dusty roads into ribbons of muted gold, casting long, lean shadows across the fields that stretch toward the distant silhouette of Surrounded Hill.

Economic life in Amagon remains deeply anchored to the fertile earth, where the work of generations persists in the cultivation of rice and soybeans that color the seasons in shades of emerald and straw. This rural persistence is mirrored by the presence of the Cache River National Wildlife Refuge, a nearby sanctuary that preserves the wilder character of the bottomlands and provides a necessary respite for migratory birds. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of those who watch the weather for a living, maintaining a small-scale, grounded existence that values the utility of a well-tended tractor or the communal silence of a porch at twilight. While the larger world continues its frantic pace, Amagon retains a singular focus, tethered to the slow drainage of the plains and the unpretentious dignity of a life lived close to the harvest.

About This Amagon Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Amagon, Arkansas. Coordinates: 35.562025, -91.110401. 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 Amagon includes the ZIP code (72005), telephone area code (870), county seat of Jackson County (Newport), and school district assignment (Newport School District).

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.
