How to Use This Bawcomville, Louisiana Map

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

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 Bawcomville, Louisiana

Bawcomville is a locality in Ouachita Parish, Louisiana, United States. It has a population of approximately 3,472. The population density is 423.3 people per km². Bawcomville is located at 32.4704°N, 92.1674°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 71292.

Bawcomville emerges from the flat, humid expanse of the Louisiana interior as a place where the horizon remains stubbornly wide and unencumbered. It lies 3.5 miles south-southeast of Claiborne, LA (from Claiborne, LA: bearing 156°T), and is situated 3.9 miles southwest of Monroe. The landscape here is defined by the slow, deliberate movement of Judy Slough, which carves a path through the low-lying terrain only a mile from the center of Bawcomville. Sunlight catches the thick, humid air at dusk, turning the sky a bruised purple that settles heavily over the nearby waters of Pucketts Lake. While Snake Ridge rises as a faint, jagged suggestion of altitude twenty miles to the west, the immediate surroundings remain dominated by the quiet, earthy persistence of the inland plains.

Generations have built their lives upon this sediment-rich earth, finding a steady, modest rhythm in the local economy that has long favored industry and trade over the frantic pace of larger hubs. The influence of the nearby Restoration Park provides a quiet sanctuary of managed green space, offering a contrast to the industrial remnants that dot the outskirts of the region. Life in Bawcomville moves with the unforced cadence of a place that understands its own scale, neither reaching for the grandeur of The Basin twelve miles away nor succumbing to the static nature of a forgotten outpost. Residents move through their days with a practical grace, shaped by the heat that lingers well past sunset and the enduring, humble character of the land itself.

About This Bawcomville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Bawcomville, Louisiana. Coordinates: 32.470424, -92.167358. 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 Bawcomville includes the ZIP code (71292), telephone area code (318), county seat of Ouachita Parish, and school district assignment (Ouachita 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.
