How to Use This Gosnell, Arkansas Map

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

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.

About Gosnell, Arkansas

Gosnell is a locality in Mississippi County, Arkansas, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,910. The population density is 673.2 people per km².

Gosnell occupies a wide, level expanse of the Mississippi Delta where the horizon stretches flat and uncompromising under an immense, pale sky. It lies 3.7 miles northwest of Blytheville, AR (from Blytheville, AR: bearing 307°T), and is situated 19.7 miles south-southeast of Kennett. The earth here is dark and heavy, a profound loam that holds the heat of summer afternoons long after the sun has dipped toward the distant, low-lying relief of Chickasawba Mound. Near the quiet perimeter of Gosnell Park, the air often carries the scent of damp soil and drying stalks, a stillness that seems to gather in the low depressions of the fields. Four miles away, the sluggish, narrow passage of Sand Slough Ditch marks the topography, a subtle vein cutting through the alluvial plain, while the broader, basin-like depression of Big Lake lies nine miles off, anchoring the regional drainage in a slow, sediment-rich drift.

Agriculture serves as the primary pulse of Gosnell, with vast, geometric fields of cotton and soybeans defining the rhythm of the seasons and the cycle of labor. The legacy of the land is tied to the labor of generations who cleared the dense timber to reveal the fertile silt beneath, shaping a local economy that remains deeply rooted in the productivity of these acres. Life in Gosnell moves with the measured, deliberate pace of the harvest, far removed from the frantic motion of more dense urban centers. Occasionally, the distant, shimmering surface of Johnson Lake, seventeen miles removed, offers a rare, reflective break in the monotony of the plains, mirroring the soft, golden light that settles over the crops as the day concludes in a quiet, amber haze.

About This Gosnell Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gosnell, Arkansas. Coordinates: 35.959794, -89.972033. 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 Gosnell includes the ZIP code (72315, 72319), telephone area code (501), county seat of Mississippi County (Blytheville), and school district assignment (Gosnell 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.
