How to Use This Scranton, Arkansas Map

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

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.

Scranton emerges from the humid, verdant landscape of the Arkansas River Valley as a quiet confluence of bottomland and timber. It lies 23.4 miles west-northwest of Russellville, AR (from Russellville, AR: bearing 284°T), and is situated 8.6 miles south-southwest of Clarksville. The winding path of Cane Creek carves a low, persistent furrow through the earth nearby, feeding the damp, rich soils that support a tapestry of hardwood and pine. To the north, the faint, hazy silhouette of Sand Ridge marks the horizon, a constant, stable presence against the shifting light of long afternoons. Residents find a singular stillness within the Dardanelle Recreation Area, where the land meets the expansive, shimmering surface of Lake Dardanelle, offering a perspective on a geography defined not by elevation, but by the slow, deliberate work of water and silt.

Scranton retains a character forged by the steady, unpretentious labor of agriculture and the rhythms of a rural existence. The economy remains tethered to the vitality of the soil, with fields that stretch toward the distant slopes of Cedar Bottom, reflecting a heritage of farming that has long anchored the local identity. Life in Scranton moves with the measured pace of the seasons, where the heat of midsummer settles thick over the pastures and the crisp autumn air brings a clarity to the work of the harvest. There is a perceptible dignity in this endurance, a quiet persistence found in the maintenance of fences and the seasonal turn of the earth, ensuring that the history of the place remains legible in the everyday motions of those who call it home.
