Explore New Madrid, 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 New Madrid, 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 New Madrid.
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.

New Madrid occupies a low, expansive stretch of fertile earth where the atmosphere often hangs heavy with the scent of damp soil and ripening crops. It lies 20.3 miles south of Sikeston, MO (from Sikeston, MO: bearing 171°T), and is situated 18.0 miles north of Lake. The land around New Madrid spreads out in a flat, unassuming reach, punctuated by the quiet, methodical movement of Saint Johns Bayou and the still, dark waters of Morrison Hole. To the west, the distant, hazy silhouette of Scrub Ridge breaks the horizon, providing the only vertical relief against an otherwise boundless sky. Within the quiet perimeter of Unknpwn Park, the light at dusk settles in long, bruised purples, casting an amber glow over the fields that seem to stretch toward the edges of the world.
History remains a palpable weight here, defined by the seismic shifts that once rearranged the very foundations of the local landscape and left an indelible mark on the local character. Agriculture dictates the rhythm of the days, as the economy relies heavily on the yield of the surrounding plains and the steady labor required to work such deep, dark loam. The people of New Madrid move with a deliberate, plain-spoken grace, shaped by a resilience born of living in a place that has been fundamentally altered by the earth itself. Life here unfolds without pretense, defined by the seasonal cycles of planting and harvest and the quiet continuity of a community that understands its place in the vast, open expanse of the interior.

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.
