How to Use This Midway, Arkansas Map

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

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.

About Midway, Arkansas

Midway is a locality in Nevada County, Arkansas, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,036. The population density is 69.5 people per km². Midway is located at 36.3922°N, 92.4755°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 72394, 71728, 72568.

Midway maintains a quiet, deliberate presence amidst the dense, ancient woodlands of the Arkansas interior. It lies 31.5 miles southwest of Arkadelphia, AR (from Arkadelphia, AR: bearing 227°T), and is situated 4.4 miles west of Prescott. May Creek carves a narrow, persistent path through the limestone-rich earth nearby, its waters often translucent and cool even during the heavy, humid heat of midsummer afternoons. Beyond the immediate canopy of hardwood and pine, the landscape rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Cedar Ridge, which anchors the western horizon in a jagged, blue-gray line. The light here possesses a particular quality at dusk, filtering through the dense foliage to cast long, golden-amber shafts that settle upon the forest floor like fallen leaves. Only four miles away, the Johnson Hale Walking Trail offers a measured way to traverse this terrain, winding through the undergrowth where the air remains still and heavy with the scent of damp soil and emerging ferns.

Midway retains a character shaped by the slow, cyclical demands of agrarian life and the deliberate pace of a rural crossroads. The local economy persists in a quiet dialogue with the land, grounded in the seasonal rhythms of timber and small-scale cultivation that have defined these hollows for generations. Neighbors here share a vernacular that favors brevity and a certain melodic patience, reflecting a history of self-reliance forged in the isolation of the timberlands. While Hale Lake sits a mere three miles distant, drawing those who seek the stillness of its surface under a morning mist, the true center of the locality remains the intersection of its gravel roads and the enduring loyalty of its people to the soil. Life in Midway moves with the steady, unforced gravity of the seasons, where the primary pursuit is not to outpace the environment, but to move in concert with the shifting shadows of the trees and the steady, perennial flow of the creek.

About This Midway Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Midway, Arkansas. Coordinates: 36.39224, -92.475532. 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 Midway includes the ZIP code (72394, 71728, 72568), telephone area code (501, 479), county seat of Nevada County (Prescott), and school district assignment (Mountain Home 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.
