How to Use This Monroe, Oklahoma Map

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

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 Monroe, Oklahoma

Monroe is a locality in Le Flore County, Oklahoma, United States. It is a small community with a population of 164. The population density is 45.3 people per km². Monroe is located at 34.9926°N, 94.5169°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 74947, 74953.

Monroe emerges from the red-earth lowlands of eastern Oklahoma, where the steady, rhythmic pulse of Cowskin Creek defines the local topography. It lies 28.0 miles south-southwest of Fort Smith, AR (from Fort Smith, AR: bearing 194°T), and is situated 7.4 miles southeast of Poteau. The landscape surrounding Monroe is shaped by the nearby Sugar Loaf Mountains, which cast long, violet shadows across the fields as the sun dips toward the horizon, cooling the air and settling the dust of the plains. Five miles away, the vast, wooded expanse of the Ouachita National Forest offers a dense, green contrast to the open agricultural tracts, while the quiet waters of Terrell Lake provide a still mirror for the heavy, amber light of late afternoon.

Monroe carries the weight of a frontier history, bearing the echoes of a time when the land was a frontier of shifting borders and hard-won homesteads. The local economy remains tethered to the vitality of the soil and the legacy of the regional resource industry, moving with the measured pace of a place that values endurance over haste. Residents look toward the distant ridges of the Sugar Loaf Mountains to gauge the coming weather, their lives influenced by the seasonal cycles that govern the fields and the persistent, wandering wind. Even as years pass, Monroe maintains a singular, quiet character, shaped by the proximity of Henderson Mill Hollow and the unassuming flow of the water that has sustained this territory for generations.

About This Monroe Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Monroe, Oklahoma. Coordinates: 34.9926, -94.516889. 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 Monroe includes the ZIP code (74947, 74953), telephone area code (918), county seat of Le Flore County (Poteau), and school district assignment (Monroe Public School).

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.
