How to Use This Midland, North Carolina Map
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Midland, North Carolina. 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 North Carolina 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 Midland.
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.

It lies 8.9 miles east-northeast of Mint Hill, NC (from Mint Hill, NC: bearing 68°T), and is situated 9.7 miles north of Unionville. The Muddy Creek carves a winding, somber path through the lower reaches of the terrain, its waters reflecting the heavy, golden light that settles over the fields at dusk. Though the Appalachian Mountains remain a distant, hazy silhouette against the western horizon, the immediate environment is defined by thickets of pine and hardwood that frame the open pastures. Only five miles away, the surface of Pharrs Lake holds a stillness that mirrors the surrounding woods, providing a cool reprieve from the heat that often lingers in the thick, humid air of the afternoon.
Midland maintains a character shaped by the steady, industrious pulse of the surrounding countryside, where the legacy of agriculture has transitioned into a modern landscape of small-scale commerce and residential ease. The influence of Cabarrus County - Rob Wallace Park, just a mile away, serves as a focal point for the preservation of local flora and the quiet recreation of those who call the area home. The economy here functions with a deliberate pace, far removed from the frantic energy of larger urban centers, yet connected to the regional heritage of craftsmanship and labor. Life in Midland is marked by the shifting colors of the canopy throughout the seasons, a place where the sprawl of progress has not yet obscured the fundamental, grounded reality of the soil and the people who attend to it.

About This Midland Map Page
This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Midland, North Carolina. Coordinates: 35.245064, -80.521219. 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 Midland includes the ZIP code (28107), telephone area code (704, 980), county seat of Cabarrus County (Concord), and school district assignment (Cabarrus County 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.
