How to Use This Greenwood, Arkansas Map

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

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.

Greenwood occupies a quiet expanse of the Arkansas interior, defined by the persistent, rhythmic flow of Garrison Creek as it carves a path through the landscape. It lies 5.0 miles north-northwest of Fort Smith, AR (from Fort Smith, AR: bearing 332°T), and is situated 5.3 miles west of Van Buren. The earth here holds a dense, clay-heavy resilience, supporting thickets of hardwood that turn a bruised, burnt orange when the autumn light grows thin and sharp. In the distance, the silhouette of Miller Ridge marks the horizon, a constant, dark reminder of the rugged topography that defines this region. Those who wander toward the Mr. Chad and Betty Ann Colley Wilderness Park find a landscape left largely to its own devices, where the air feels heavy with the scent of damp soil and ancient, undisturbed timber.

History in Greenwood remains etched into the quiet intersections of its streets, reflecting a legacy built upon the foundational industries of coal and agriculture that once dictated the pace of local life. The economy has shifted over the decades, moving from the extraction of subterranean minerals to a more contemporary focus on regional commerce and suburban stability. Residents often look toward the nearby Lee Creek Reservoir for quietude, or follow the paths of the River Trail when the heat of the afternoon yields to a cooler, violet dusk. Life in Greenwood moves with an unforced gravity, a steady persistence that honors the deep, inland silence of the surrounding hollows like Remy Hollow, where the shadows linger long after the sun has retreated behind the trees.

About This Greenwood Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Greenwood, Arkansas. Coordinates: 35.211348, -94.239444. 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 Greenwood includes the ZIP code (72949, 72936), telephone area code (479), county seat of Crawford County (Van Buren), and school district assignment (Greenwood 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.
