How to Use This McRae, Arkansas Map

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

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.

McRae stretches across the flat, fertile plains of Arkansas where the horizon remains wide and unobstructed, save for the occasional reach of dense timber. It lies 10.7 miles south-southwest of Searcy, AR (from Searcy, AR: bearing 207°T), and is situated 4.4 miles northeast of Beebe. Lawrence Branch cuts a quiet, persistent line through the landscape, its waters moving with a deliberate, sluggish grace that defines the drainage of the local soil. To the west, the faint, hazy silhouette of Peanut Ridge marks the transition of the earth, a distant reminder of the terrain shifting toward the rugged elevations further inland. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness in the summer months, often clinging to the fields until the long shadows of dusk pull a cooler, metallic scent from the damp earth near the creek beds.

McRae persists as a place forged in the rhythm of agricultural labor and the slow passage of trains that once anchored its development. The local economy remains tied to the cultivation of these expansive fields, where the cycle of planting and harvest dictates the cadence of the days. Residents seeking a moment of respite often travel toward the quiet grounds of Edward Lunnie Memorial Park, or look toward the stillness of Schroeder Lake to find a reprieve from the heat. Beyond the fields, the land descends toward the low, shadowed drainage of Gilbert Hollow, where the dense brush thrives in the isolation. Life in McRae unfolds with a quiet, unadorned endurance, marked by the steady hum of machinery and the persistent, low-lying light that settles over the flat expanse as evening arrives.

About This McRae Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of McRae, Arkansas. Coordinates: 35.112864, -91.822362. 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 McRae includes the ZIP code (72102), telephone area code (501), county seat of White County (Searcy), and school district assignment (Beebe 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.
