How to Use This Arabi, Louisiana Map

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

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 Arabi, Louisiana

Arabi is a locality in St. Bernard Parish, Louisiana, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,533. The population density is 997.3 people per km². Arabi is located at 29.9544°N, 90.0053°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 70032.

Arabi stretches across a low-slung expanse of deltaic silt, where the heavy, humid air carries the persistent scent of salt and turning soil from the nearby coastal reaches. It lies 2.6 miles west-northwest of Chalmette, LA (from Chalmette, LA: bearing 288°T), and is situated 4.2 miles east of New Orleans. The landscape here is defined by the unrelenting presence of the Mississippi River, which presses against the land’s edge just a mile away, its currents a constant, brown pulse that dictates the rhythm of the horizon. At the Delery Playspot, the ground remains soft and receptive, absorbing the golden, slanted light of late afternoon that filters through the cypress branches. Nine miles to the southeast, the open waters of Big Mar exert a subtle pull on the local atmosphere, while the distant, vast surface of Lake Pontchartrain lies six miles to the north, serving as a reminder of the shifting, water-bound geography that shapes the very fiber of the earth.

Arabi grew from the necessity of industry, its early years defined by the labor of the slaughterhouses and the steady hum of commerce that moved along the river’s reach. This legacy of work remains, though the character of the place has evolved into a quiet resilience, where the memory of the Bell Crevasse and the distant, isolated presence of Demourelles Island underscore a history of adapting to the water’s unpredictable will. The economy here is a collage of small-scale enterprise and the enduring traditions of a region that exists just outside the frantic pace of the neighboring metropolis, favoring a slower, deliberate way of life. Residents move with a recognition of their surroundings, acknowledging the subtle shifts in the tide and the way the seasons color the local greenery, grounding their identity in the precise, damp reality of the terrain.

About This Arabi Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Arabi, Louisiana. Coordinates: 29.95437, -90.005348. 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 Arabi includes the ZIP code (70032), telephone area code (504), county seat of St. Bernard Parish, and school district assignment (St. Bernard 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.
