Explore Coal Hill, Arkansas, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Coal Hill, 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 Coal Hill.
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.

Coal Hill occupies a quiet expanse of the Arkansas interior, where the land shifts from gentle rises into the deeper, shadowed folds of the regional topography. It lies 32.3 miles west-northwest of Russellville, AR (from Russellville, AR: bearing 290°T), and is situated 9.4 miles east-southeast of Ozark. The local atmosphere is defined by a heavy, humid stillness that settles over the thickets of pine and hardwood, particularly as the afternoon light turns a bruised, golden violet against the horizon. To the west, the distant silhouettes of Sand Ridge offer a serrated edge to the skyline, while the immediate drainage of Patsy Creek carves a path through the red clay soil just a mile from the center of Coal Hill. The air here holds a distinct, earthy scent of damp loam and decaying leaves, a persistent reminder of the dense forests that press against the edges of the clearing.
History in this region is inextricably tied to the extraction of the earth’s own minerals, a legacy that once fueled the growth of the locality and dictated the rhythm of its early development. While the roar of the mines has long since faded into a profound silence, the landscape still bears the subtle, sunken scars of a former economy. Today, life moves with a deliberate, measured pace, influenced by the proximity of Hartman Lake and the expansive, quiet vistas of the Dardanelle Recreation Area. Residents often look toward the broader, more distant reaches of Philpott Valley for the quietude of open space, finding a sense of continuity in the way the seasons color the canopy of dogwood and redbud. It is a place where the modern world feels attenuated, replaced by a steady, observational stillness that mirrors the slow, brown movement of the local waterways.

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.
