How to Use This Metz, Missouri Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Metz, 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 Metz.
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.

ZIP code: 64765.Metz occupies a quiet expanse of the Missouri plains, where the horizon stretches wide and the sky claims an immense, unburdened portion of the day. It lies 55.6 miles south of Raymore, MO (from Raymore, MO: bearing 179°T), and is situated 12.0 miles north-northwest of Nevada. The earth here is defined by a rhythmic, subtle slope toward the Little Osage River, which winds through the landscape a mile away with a slow, deliberate grace. To the east, the distant Rombaugh Hills soften the skyline into a hazy, violet-gray silhouette, while the nearby W S Charles Lake catches the afternoon light, turning the water into a sheet of polished copper. The air carries the faint, dry scent of prairie grass and turned soil, a sensory reminder of the land’s enduring connection to the plow and the season.
Agriculture remains the pulse of Metz, dictating the tempo of life as the sun rises over fields that have sustained families for generations. Residents find their recreation at the Balltown Access, a place where the wilder edges of the woods provide a quiet refuge from the demands of the harvest cycle. The character of Metz is forged in the plain-spoken resolve of those who work the dirt, a legacy of resilience that values the steady labor of the present over the fleeting noise of the modern world. Life here moves with the measured patience of a pendulum, anchored by the local geography and the enduring, deep-rooted stillness of the Missouri interior.

About This Metz Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Metz, Missouri. Coordinates: 37.997535, -94.443285. 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 Metz includes the ZIP code (64765), telephone area code (816), county seat of Vernon County (Nevada), and school district assignment (Nevada R-V 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.
