How to Use This Yarmouth, Iowa Map

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

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 Yarmouth, Iowa

Yarmouth is a locality in Des Moines County, Iowa, United States. It is a small community with a population of 61. The population density is 13.8 people per km². Yarmouth is located at 41.0264°N, 91.3235°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 52660.

Yarmouth occupies a quiet expanse of the Iowa plains where the horizon stretches thin and flat beneath a sky that seems to possess more gravity than the earth itself. It lies 18.7 miles northwest of Burlington, IA (from Burlington, IA: bearing 324°T), and is situated 7.9 miles north-northeast of New London. The landscape around Yarmouth remains defined by the patient, seasonal labor of the plow, where vast, geometric fields of corn and soybeans absorb the heavy light of mid-afternoon. Only a mile away, Big Creek marks the land with a slow, muddy persistence, its banks lined with the tangled, silver-barked timber that guards the drainage of the fields. During the height of summer, the air here holds a deep, vegetative warmth, smelling faintly of turned soil and the dry, sweet dust that rises from the gravel roads.

Agriculture has anchored the local economy since the earliest settlers arrived to break the stubborn prairie sod, leaving behind a legacy of resilience that persists in the quiet maintenance of fence lines and grain silos. Yarmouth maintains a steady, internal rhythm, far removed from the louder currents of the state’s urban centers, yet connected to the wider world through the heavy freight of the harvest. For those seeking the slower pace of the outdoors, the Hoover Nature Trail provides a corridor of transition six miles away, offering a passage through the regional flora that feels untouched by the machinery of the farm. Even the distant, shimmering surface of East Lake, sitting eleven miles out, serves as a reminder of the quiet, inland water that sustains the character of this corner of the state.

About This Yarmouth Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Yarmouth, Iowa. Coordinates: 41.026421, -91.323486. 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 Yarmouth includes the ZIP code (52660), telephone area code (712), county seat of Des Moines County (Burlington), and school district assignment (Mediapolis Community 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.
