How to Use This Radium Springs, New Mexico Map

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

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.

About Radium Springs, New Mexico

Radium Springs is a locality in Doña Ana County, New Mexico, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,498. The population density is 96.9 people per km². Radium Springs is located at 32.4782°N, 106.9031°W. It observes the Mountain Time (America/Denver) timezone. ZIP codes: 87940, 88054, 88007.

Radium Springs emerges from the high desert floor as a quiet confluence of geological heat and the cooling, persistent presence of the Rio Grande. It lies 15.7 miles northwest of Las Cruces, NM (from Las Cruces, NM: bearing 326°T), and is situated 18.2 miles northwest of University Park. The landscape here is defined by the expansive, sun-bleached reaches of the Hatch Valley, where the earth holds the day’s warmth long after the sun dips behind the distant, jagged silhouette of Lookout Peak. The air carries a dry, mineral sharpness, and the light at dusk turns the surrounding dust into a fine, golden powder that settles over the sagebrush and scrub. Visitors find themselves at the threshold of Leasburg Dam State Park, where the river’s path dictates the rhythm of the terrain, carving a narrow, verdant vein through an otherwise arid and monochromatic expanse.

Radium Springs draws its name from the thermal waters that once promised restoration to those seeking the healing properties of the earth’s deep, subterranean reservoirs. While the economy has shifted away from its early days as a destination for the infirm, the land remains tethered to the agricultural legacy of the valley, where the cycle of the chile harvest marks the passage of the seasons more reliably than any calendar. The history of the locale is layered with the quiet persistence of those who worked the soil and redirected the river to sustain life in a thirsty climate. Today, Radium Springs maintains a modest, contemplative character, defined by the slow movement of the water and the vast, unblinking sky that dominates the horizon.

About This Radium Springs Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Radium Springs, New Mexico. Coordinates: 32.478231, -106.903074. 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 Radium Springs includes the ZIP code (87940, 88054, 88007), telephone area code (575), county seat of Doña Ana County, and school district assignment (Las Cruces Public 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.
