How to Use This Amite City, Louisiana Map

This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Amite City, Louisiana. 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 Louisiana 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 Amite City.

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.

Amite City rests upon a landscape of gentle, pine-studded rises and fertile earth that stretches toward the horizon, far removed from any maritime influence. It lies 16.1 miles north of Hammond, LA (from Hammond, LA: bearing 349°T), and is situated 0.5 miles north-northwest of Amite. The terrain here is defined by the steady, persistent flow of the Tangipahoa River, which carves a path through the humid woodland just two miles away. Sunlight filters through the canopy in long, amber shafts during the late afternoon, illuminating the fine dust that rises from the quiet roads. Beyond the immediate reach of the town, the land shifts into the subtle, low-lying depressions of Sandy Hollow, creating a mosaic of drainage basins and thickets that hold the heat long after the sun has retreated. Residents find a quiet respite in the greenery of Amite Park, a localized sanctuary where the air feels heavy with the scent of damp soil and ancient, encroaching forest.

Amite City maintains a character forged by the slow, deliberate pace of agricultural commerce and the steady pulse of regional trade that has defined its existence for generations. The economy remains tethered to the rhythmic demands of the land, where the labor of the field and the logistics of the timber industry provide a foundation for daily life. Historic facades line the center of the grid, their brickwork worn smooth by the humidity and the passage of decades, signaling a past built on the industrious spirit of early settlers. While the distant silhouette of Rose Mound provides a faint, static anchor to the north, the focus here remains intensely local, centered on the intersections where commerce and community converge. Life moves with an unforced cadence, a reflection of a place that values the weight of its own history over the frantic pace of the outside world, favoring the enduring quiet of the inland plains.

About This Amite City Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Amite City, Louisiana. Coordinates: 30.7323, -90.5133. 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 Amite City includes the ZIP code (70422), telephone area code (985), county seat of Tangipahoa Parish, and school district assignment (Tangipahoa Parish 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.
