How to Use This Waverly, Missouri Map

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

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.

Waverly commands a position of quiet authority above the broad, silt-heavy currents of the Missouri River, where the earth gives way to wide, fertile bottomlands that stretch toward the horizon. It lies 18.2 miles west-northwest of Marshall, MO (from Marshall, MO: bearing 289°T), and is situated 14.3 miles northeast of Higginsville. Here, the landscape is defined by the deliberate, inexorable flow of the water and the way the light catches the tall grasses of the Big Muddy National Fish And Wildlife Refuge, turning the expanse into a shifting mosaic of pale gold and muted green. Shields Hill rises in the distance as a steady, silent anchor to the landscape, while the quiet waters of Cooks Lake sit ten miles away, offering a still counterpoint to the restless movement of the river nearby. The air feels heavy with the scent of damp soil and the deep, persistent silence of the plains, a stillness that seems to amplify the rustle of leaves as the sun dips low against the trees.

Agriculture forms the bedrock of Waverly, an economy historically rooted in the deep, dark soil that yields apples in such abundance they have long defined the local identity. Orchards climb the slopes with geometric precision, their rows marking the passage of the seasons and the enduring labor of those who tend the land. The history of the place is etched into the modest brick facades and the straight, purposeful lines of the streets, reflecting a culture of plain-spoken industry that values the harvest over fanfare. Even as the modern world pulls at the edges of the region, Waverly maintains a distinct, deliberate pace, where the rhythm of life is set by the planting and the gathering, and the town remains a persistent presence amidst the vast, enduring character of the Missouri landscape.

About This Waverly Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Waverly, Missouri. Coordinates: 39.209464, -93.517712. 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 Waverly includes the ZIP code (64096), telephone area code (816), county seat of Lafayette County (Lexington), and school district assignment (Santa Fe R-X 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.
