How to Use This Gum Springs, Arkansas Map

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

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.

Gum Springs emerges from the landscape as a quiet expanse where the earth holds the heat of the afternoon long after the sun has begun its descent. It lies 3.9 miles south-southwest of Little Rock, AR (from Little Rock, AR: bearing 212°T), and is situated 5.9 miles southwest of North Little Rock. Fourche Creek drifts past the edge of the settlement, its waters carving a path through the dense clay and loam that define the soil here. To the north, the silhouette of Fourche Mountain rises against the sky, a steady, dark presence that anchors the horizon. Residents often gather at Benny Craig, where the interplay of hardwood shade and open grass provides a respite from the humidity. The light at dusk here takes on a bruised, amber quality, catching the edges of the leaves and illuminating the stillness of Lake Bendine as it mirrors the darkening woods.

History in Gum Springs is tied to the labor of the land and the endurance of those who first settled these timbered tracts. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythms of agriculture and the stewardship of the surrounding woods, with a pace of life that favors deliberation over haste. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain dips toward the quietude of Echo Valley, where the air feels heavier and the sounds of the day grow muffled. Life revolves around the shared connections of the neighborhood, built upon generations of families who have worked the ground and recognized the subtle shifts in the seasons. There is a particular honesty to the way the days unfold, marked by the slow movement of the creek and the unwavering line of the mountain range that keeps watch over the valley.

About This Gum Springs Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Gum Springs, Arkansas. Coordinates: 34.063937, -93.095709. 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 Gum Springs includes the ZIP code (72641, 71665, 72209), telephone area code (501, 870), county seat of Pulaski County (Little Rock), and school district assignment (Arkadelphia 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.
