How to Use This Matthews, Missouri Map

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

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.

Matthews emerges from the flat, alluvial expanse of the Bootheel, where the horizon stretches wide and unencumbered under a sky that feels vast enough to swallow the day. It lies 8.1 miles south of Sikeston, MO (from Sikeston, MO: bearing 180°T), and is situated 17.2 miles southwest of Charleston. The land here possesses a heavy, dark fertility, an insistent earth that demands the rhythm of the plow and the steady patience of the seasons. To the west, the subtle rise of Cane Ridge marks the distant edge of the landscape, a faint, hazy serration against the blue that serves as a quiet reminder of the shifting topography beyond the plains. Nearby, the quiet waters of Lake Saint Mary offer a glassy stillness that mirrors the changing color of the twilight, while the slow, deliberate drainage of Saint Johns Ditch carves a thin, functional line through the fields, guiding the runoff of a region defined by its reliance on the soil.

Agriculture remains the pulse of Matthews, dictating the tempo of the year through the planting of cotton and soybeans that blanket the surrounding acreage in alternating waves of green and gold. The legacy of this place is written in the furrows of the fields and the stoic, sun-bleached structures that dot the periphery, reflecting a history tied intimately to the yield of the Missouri earth. Locals often find their way toward the Swift Ditch Access for a moment of reprieve, where the intersection of water and land creates a sanctuary for the quiet observer. Life in Matthews maintains a plain-spoken, deliberate pace, where the significance of a harvest or the shifting humidity of an afternoon carries more weight than the clamor of the outside world, grounding its inhabitants in a reality that is as tangible and unadorned as the dirt beneath their boots.

About This Matthews Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Matthews, Missouri. Coordinates: 36.7568, -89.567477. 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 Matthews includes the ZIP code (63867), telephone area code (816), county seat of New Madrid County (New Madrid), and school district assignment (New Madrid County R-I 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.
