Explore Maynard, Arkansas, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Maynard, 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 Maynard.
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.

Maynard emerges from the earth as a quiet gathering of life where the persistent, winding course of Lemmons Creek dictates the rhythm of the immediate landscape. It lies 33.5 miles northwest of Paragould, AR (from Paragould, AR: bearing 318°T), and is situated 11.7 miles north-northeast of Pocahontas. The terrain surrounding Maynard is defined by the subtle, persistent rise of the land as it reaches toward the silhouette of Tyer Ridge, which marks the horizon to the west. Broad expanses of open farmland transition into dense, shadowed woodlands, creating a patchwork of agricultural fields and timber that shift in color from the pale gold of late-season grasses to the deep, somber emerald of native hardwoods. The air here carries the scent of damp soil and sun-warmed pine, a heavy, grounding atmosphere that lingers especially during the humid stillness of the afternoon. A short distance away, the quiet waters of R J Barnett Lake offer a reflective stillness, while the terrain dips into the secluded, shaded depths of Rock Spring Hollow, providing a stark contrast to the open, sun-drenched plains.
History in Maynard is written in the slow accretion of cycles, where the economy remains deeply tethered to the productivity of the soil and the stewardship of the surrounding acreage. Generations have navigated the balance between small-scale commerce and the demands of the land, finding a steady, unadorned purpose in the cultivation of fields and the management of local resources. The Robert Hankins/mud Creek Wildlife Demonstration Area serves as a vital anchor for this relationship, preserving the local ecology and offering a space where the natural world asserts its own ancient, unchanging authority over the pace of human activity. Everyday life here moves with a deliberate, measured quality, stripped of unnecessary noise and focused on the immediate requirements of the season. It is a place where the social fabric is reinforced by the simple, recurrent patterns of labor and the quiet, persistent presence of the wild, leaving the inhabitants to exist in a state of honest, ongoing dialogue with their surroundings.

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.
