How to Use This Midway, Louisiana Map

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

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 Midway, Louisiana

Midway is a locality in Webster Parish, Louisiana, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,157. The population density is 147.3 people per km². Midway is located at 31.6756°N, 92.1466°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 70538, 71006, 71071.

Midway emerges from the dense, pine-heavy woodlands of northern Louisiana as a quiet intersection of earth and sky. It lies 23.3 miles north-northwest of Minden, LA (from Minden, LA: bearing 335°T), and is situated 5.8 miles south of Springhill. The landscape here is defined by a subtle, deliberate flatness, broken only by the occasional rise toward Big Mound in the distance, which anchors the horizon in a haze of muted green. Bodcau Creek winds through the undergrowth just a mile away, its slow, dark currents carving a path through the silt and clay that form the foundation of the region. Three miles to the east, the stillness of Paper Mill Pond offers a reflective contrast to the dense thickets, while the nearby Dorcheat Bayou Megasite serves as a vast, protected reach of wilder terrain. As the sun dips toward the tree line, the light catches the moisture in the air, turning the humid atmosphere a bruised, golden violet that settles over the fields and holds the heat of the day long after the shadows have lengthened.

Midway maintains a steady, internal focus, shaped by generations who have worked the soil and navigated the local timber trade. Life here moves in accordance with the seasonal cycles of the land, far removed from the bustle of the coast, finding its center in the small, persistent rhythms of rural labor. The presence of The Flats five miles away creates a distinct basin that has long influenced how water drains and how crops are sown across the surrounding acreage. While the economy remains modest and tethered to the natural resources of the woods and plains, there is a quiet resilience in the way the residents maintain their properties and clearings. History in Midway is not recorded in grand monuments, but in the enduring way the roads follow the contours of the terrain and the collective memory of families who have seen the seasons turn over the same stretches of pine and pasture for decades.

About This Midway Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Midway, Louisiana. Coordinates: 31.675565, -92.146581. 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 Midway includes the ZIP code (70538, 71006, 71071), telephone area code (318), county seat of Webster Parish, and school district assignment (La Salle 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.
