Explore Burfordville, Missouri, 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 Burfordville, Missouri. 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 Missouri 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 Burfordville.
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.

Burfordville holds the steady, quiet cadence of a place shaped by the persistent, rhythmic push of the Upper Whitewater Creek. It lies 7.8 miles west of Jackson, MO (from Jackson, MO: bearing 263°T), and is situated 16.4 miles west-northwest of Cape Girardeau. The landscape here unfolds in a sequence of verdant, earth-bound swells that rise toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Devils Backbone, defining a horizon that feels ancient and undisturbed. Light at dusk gathers in the hollows with a heavy, golden density, clinging to the sycamores that stand as sentinels over the water’s edge. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the land transitions into a tapestry of cultivated fields and timbered ridges, where the air retains a crisp, loam-scented clarity that speaks of the deep, inland Missouri soil.
Burfordville carries the weight of a long-standing agrarian legacy, anchored by the presence of the historic Bollinger Mill which still commands the riverbank with its sturdy, functional grace. The economy remains rooted in the cycles of the earth, echoing a time when the grinding of grain dictated the pulse of the day. Travelers seeking the solitude of the outdoors often turn toward the Lake Girardeau Conservation Area or the quiet, reflective waters of Lake Cedar, both of which offer a respite from the hurried pace of modern commerce. Life in Burfordville moves with a deliberate, unforced consistency, reflecting a character forged by the plain-spoken traditions of the region and the enduring influence of the surrounding countryside.

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.
