How to Use This Garfield, New Mexico Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Garfield, New Mexico. 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 New Mexico 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 Garfield.

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.

Garfield anchors itself within the arid embrace of Garfield Canyon, where the landscape is defined by the stark, sun-bleached geometry of the high desert. It lies 41.8 miles northwest of Las Cruces, NM (from Las Cruces, NM: bearing 317°T), and is situated 25.7 miles south of Truth or Consequences. The earth here holds a pale, dusty warmth, shifting in hue from ochre to a deep, bruised violet as the light retreats behind the distant silhouette of Redhouse Mountain. Only a mile away, the dry bed of Broadhurst Arroyo cuts a jagged, sandy scar through the scrubland, marking the seasonal passage of water that rarely lingers. The air possesses a crystalline clarity, sharpened by the absence of humidity, which renders the distant, craggy horizons with a startling, almost tactile precision.

Garfield persists as a quiet testament to the agricultural resilience of the region, where the economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the soil and the seasonal labor of the fields. Long before modern transit, the area served as a modest waypoint for those moving through the basin, its history layered with the quiet persistence of families who cultivated the land against the persistent demands of a dry climate. Life here moves with the deliberate pace of a long-practiced routine, far removed from the clamor of larger centers, though the proximity of Salem Community Park provides a local space for gathering and respite. Residents often look toward the shimmering surface of Caballo Reservoir, ten miles distant, as a vital reminder of the water that sustains the valley’s verdant, irrigated rows of chile and alfalfa amidst the surrounding expanse of heat and stone.

About This Garfield Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Garfield, New Mexico. Coordinates: 32.757019, -107.264467. 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 Garfield includes the ZIP code (87936), telephone area code (575), county seat of Doña Ana County, and school district assignment (Hatch Valley Municipal Schools).

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.
