Explore Mangham, Louisiana, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Mangham, 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 Mangham.
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.

Mangham anchors the flat, fertile expanse of the Richland Parish plains, where the horizon stretches wide under a vast, unencumbered sky. It lies 24.4 miles southeast of Monroe, LA (from Monroe, LA: bearing 124°T), and is situated 10.6 miles north-northwest of Winnsboro. The earth here is dark and heavy, drinking in the heat of the afternoon until the soil seems to pulse with a quiet, mineral life. A mile to the west, Big Creek carves a slow, deliberate path through the landscape, its banks shaded by dense thickets that offer a cool reprieve from the relentless sun. The light at dusk settles over the fields in long, amber sheets, turning the dust kicked up by passing trucks into a golden haze that lingers long after the day has surrendered to the dark.
Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Mangham, with the surrounding fields given over to the rhythmic cycles of cotton and soybean harvests that have defined the local economy for generations. The legacy of the railway, which once served as the central artery for the movement of goods, still echoes in the quiet geometry of the streets and the modest architecture of the storefronts. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the terrain opens into a patchwork of agricultural industry, though residents often travel ten miles toward Landis Memorial Park to find a quieter, wooded respite. Life moves at a measured pace, dictated by the turning of the seasons and the simple, enduring requirements of the land, leaving the inhabitants to navigate their days with a steady, pragmatic grace.

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.
