Explore Carterville, 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 Carterville, 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 Carterville.
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.

Carterville occupies a stretch of the Jasper County landscape where the flat, expansive prairie meets the subtle, stubborn rise of the Ozark foothills. It lies 1.1 miles east of Webb City, MO (from Webb City, MO: bearing 80°T), and is situated 5.9 miles northeast of Joplin. The horizon remains wide and open, holding a quality of light at dusk that turns the dry grasses into shades of burnished copper and thin, bruised violet. Water flows quiet and low through the nearby channels of Bens Branch, carving a modest path through the earth that remains mostly hidden from the main roads. Residents often find their way to the quiet perimeter of Comet'S Park, a patch of green that anchors the local geography, while the distant, hazy silhouette of Blue Mound serves as a silent, fixed northern marker against the vast Missouri sky.
Carterville emerged from the earth’s own abundance, built upon the hard-won spoils of a lead and zinc mining legacy that once defined the rhythm of its daily labor. Though the heavy machinery of the past has long since fallen silent, the town retains the grit of those industrious decades, favoring a plain-spoken character that values the weight of a person’s word above all else. The local economy has shifted away from the deep shafts to more modest enterprises, yet the land itself keeps the memory of its subterranean wealth in the occasional depression or rocky outcropping. On warm afternoons, the air carries a faint, dry scent of limestone and dust, a reminder of the bedrock that supports the homes and streets of Carterville as they settle slowly into the quiet, interior life of the plains.

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.
