How to Use This Monette, Arkansas Map

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

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.

Monette anchors itself firmly upon the flat, fertile expanse of the northeastern plains, where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered under an expansive, heavy sky. It lies 14.4 miles southeast of Paragould, AR (from Paragould, AR: bearing 144°T), and is situated 9.9 miles west of Manila. The landscape is defined by the persistent, dark soil that characterizes this agricultural heartland, a flatness interrupted only by the distant silhouette of Black Oak Ridge to the west. Water moves with a sluggish, deliberate patience through the region, seen most plainly in the narrow, earthen course of Mud Slough Ditch, which drains the fields with a quiet, persistent gravity. In the humid stillness of a summer dusk, the light turns a bruised, honeyed gold, catching the dust of late-harvest tractors and casting long, sharp shadows across the grid of road and furrow.

Monette carries the quiet weight of its agrarian roots, having grown from the necessity of taming the wild, swampy timberlands into a center for cotton and grain production. The nearby Saint Francis Sunken Lands, a vast and tangled wilderness, serves as a permanent reminder of the seismic forces that once reshaped this basin, leaving behind a flooded, forested sanctuary for migrating birds. While the economy remains tethered to the rhythmic cycles of planting and harvest, the local pace is dictated by the steady, mechanical hum of machinery and the seasonal turnover of the crops. Life here is measured by the changing color of the fields, from the pale green of early spring shoots to the stark, skeletal brown of winter, grounding the identity of Monette in the honest, unrelenting labor of the soil.

About This Monette Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Monette, Arkansas. Coordinates: 35.890629, -90.344268. 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 Monette includes the ZIP code (72447, 72437), telephone area code (501), county seat of Craighead County (Jonesboro), and school district assignment (Buffalo Island Central 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.
