How to Use This Lincoln, Arkansas Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Lincoln, 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 Lincoln.
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.

Lincoln is located at 35.9495°N, 94.4235°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Lincoln is an incorporated locality. ZIP code: 72744.Lincoln emerges from the landscape as a quiet convergence of agrarian tradition and the slow, deliberate movement of the earth. It lies 16.8 miles west-southwest of Fayetteville, AR (from Fayetteville, AR: bearing 242°T), and is situated 6.2 miles west-southwest of Prairie Grove. Bush Creek carves a persistent path through the terrain, its waters reflecting the shifting light of a sky that feels particularly expansive over the open fields. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the horizon is anchored by the distant silhouette of Grapevine Ridge, a faint blue line that separates the terrestrial from the ether. The atmosphere here possesses a weightless quality in the late afternoon, when the shadows of hardwood trees lengthen across the soil, imbuing the atmosphere with a stillness that seems to suspend time itself. Nearby, the quiet surface of Cantrell Lake provides a mirror for the changing seasons, remaining a constant, silent presence in the daily lives of those who inhabit these lands.
Lincoln maintains a steady, rhythmic pulse tied to the legacy of the orchard and the harvest, an economy rooted in the generous fertility of the regional soil. The collective memory of the place is marked by the persistence of those who worked the earth, building a livelihood from the bounty of the land before the modern era smoothed the rough edges of the frontier. Residents often find their way to Wayside Park to experience the local flora, while the deeper topographical mysteries of the region, such as the secluded expanse of Chambers Hollow, remind one of the hidden geological complexity beneath the surface. Life in Lincoln proceeds without the frantic urgency of larger centers, favoring instead a focus on the tangible—the texture of the harvest, the maintenance of the homestead, and the quiet endurance of a community that has cultivated its own distinct way of being.

Detailed location data for Lincoln includes the ZIP code (72744), telephone area code (479), county seat of Washington County (Fayetteville), and school district assignment (Lincoln 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.
