Explore Dennis Acres, 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 Dennis Acres, 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 Dennis Acres.
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.

Dennis Acres occupies a quiet stretch of land where the earth rises in low, limestone-rich swells, characteristic of the transition between the Ozark foothills and the broader plains. It lies 2.6 miles south of Joplin, MO (from Joplin, MO: bearing 171°T), and is situated 7.3 miles south-southwest of Webb City. The landscape surrounding Dennis Acres is defined by the steady, shallow flow of Joplin Creek, which moves through the woods just a mile away, and the occasional cooling spray from Shoal Creek Falls. To the west, the horizon is anchored by the faint, blue-gray silhouette of Old Foot Ridge, a distant reminder of the rugged terrain that defines the deeper reaches of the state. In the late afternoon, the light here takes on a heavy, golden quality, catching the dust of unpaved tracks and illuminating the dense, verdant cover of Garvin Park, which offers a sanctuary of oak and hickory just a short distance from the residential lots.
History in Dennis Acres remains tied to the modest ambitions of those who settled the region to work the soil or find their place in the local trades. While the economy has long favored small-scale agriculture and the steady rhythms of nearby commerce, the influence of Tanyard Hollow remains a quiet, topographical feature that directs the flow of spring rains through the fields. Residents often look toward the wider world, yet they maintain a distinct local character, shaped by the plain-spoken habits of a landlocked interior. Those seeking a respite from the heat of a summer day might travel toward Oscie Ora Acres Lake, but the true pulse of the place is found in the slow, deliberate pace of daily life, where the sound of the wind through the trees is rarely interrupted by the clamor of the outside world.

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.
