How to Use This Fulton, Arkansas Map

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

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.

Fulton holds the heavy, humid stillness of the lowlands, where the earth is comprised of deep silt and the persistent memory of water. It lies 17.6 miles northeast of Texarkana, AR (from Texarkana, AR: bearing 47°T), and is situated 13.3 miles west-southwest of Hope. The Red River carves a slow, serpentine path past the town, its sediment-rich current dragging the color of dried clay through the landscape. Beyond the riverbanks, the terrain flattens into a patchwork of dense hardwoods and open fields, where the light at dusk settles in thick, golden layers against the tree line. Just a mile away, the quiet basin of Old River Lake catches the reflection of the sky, its surface often undisturbed by anything more than the ripple of a turtle or the sudden, sharp break of a heron taking flight.

Fulton remains a quiet witness to the shifting currents of commerce and transit that once defined its emergence as a vital crossing point. The economy here leans into the rhythm of the land, drawing from the soil and the timber that thrive in the damp, fertile air. Nearby, the Little River preserves a sliver of the wilder, tangled bottomlands that characterize this corner of the state, offering a sanctuary for the flora and fauna that persist despite the slow encroachment of time. Life in Fulton moves with the deliberation of the river itself, marked by the smell of pine in the heat and the sound of insects humming in the underbrush, a place where the past is not a formal record but a presence felt in the weathered wood and the long, slow shadows of late afternoon.

About This Fulton Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Fulton, Arkansas. Coordinates: 33.614565, -93.813516. 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 Fulton includes the ZIP code (71838), telephone area code (870), county seat of Hempstead County (Hope), and school district assignment (Hope 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.
