How to Use This Anacoco, Louisiana Map

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

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 Anacoco, Louisiana

Anacoco is a locality in Vernon Parish, Louisiana, United States. It is a small community with a population of 851. The population density is 106.6 people per km².

Anacoco emerges from the pine-thickened uplands where the insistent, low-slung currents of Boone Creek carve a quiet path through the dense, verdant earth. It lies 38.2 miles south-southwest of Natchitoches, LA (from Natchitoches, LA: bearing 203°T), and is situated 8.9 miles north-northwest of Leesville. Sunlight filters through the canopy in long, amber needles, illuminating the dust motes that hang suspended in the humid, heavy air of the afternoon. To the west, the horizon remains modest and unadorned, though the distant silhouette of Eagle Hill breaks the flat expanse of the timberlands, offering a solitary point of reference in a landscape defined by its subtle, undulating slopes and persistent greenery. The atmosphere here possesses a distinct weight, a stillness that suggests time moves according to the slow, deliberate growth of the forest rather than the frantic ticking of a clock.

Anacoco carries the legacy of a rural heritage built upon the harvest of the land, where the economy remains tied to the cycles of timber and the modest demands of the surrounding parish. Life here is measured by the proximity to Wlf - Lake Anacoco / Lake Vernon, a sprawling expanse of water that anchors the local rhythm and provides a sanctuary for those who seek the quietude of the woods. While the waters of Anacoco Lake lie eight miles away, the presence of the nearby wildlife area dictates the pace of the seasons, guiding the inhabitants toward a life lived largely in the open. Traditions here are quiet and communal, rooted in a history of settlement that values the resilience of the soil and the steady, predictable flow of the creek, ensuring that Anacoco retains a character as sturdy and unassuming as the pines that define its borders.

About This Anacoco Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Anacoco, Louisiana. Coordinates: 31.252128, -93.34128. 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 Anacoco includes the ZIP code (71403), telephone area code (318), county seat of Vernon Parish, and school district assignment (Vernon Parish 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.
