How to Use This Amite, Louisiana Map

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

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 Amite, Louisiana

Amite is a locality in Tangipahoa Parish, Louisiana, United States. It has a population of approximately 4,005. Amite is located at 30.7266°N, 90.5090°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 70422.

Amite anchors itself firmly amidst the verdant, inland sprawl of pine flatwoods and rolling timberlands that define this section of the landscape. It lies 15.6 miles north of Hammond, LA (from Hammond, LA: bearing 350°T), and is situated 0.5 miles south-southeast of Amite City. The atmosphere here thickens with a humid, heavy stillness, where the low-hanging sun filters through the canopy to dapple the earth in shifting bronze hues. Only a mile away, the Tangipahoa River carves a quiet, persistent path through the soil, its current carrying the scent of damp loam and decaying needles. Beyond the immediate tree line, the terrain rises toward the distant, modest elevation of Rose Mound, while the hollows and depressions like Sandy Hollow drain the seasonal rains into the porous, dark earth. Residents often seek the shaded pathways of Amite Park, where the air feels cooler against the skin and the pace of the day slows to match the rhythm of the rising and falling terrain.

Amite maintains a character shaped by the intersection of timber extraction and the steady, patient cycles of agriculture that have long provided the region its livelihood. The economy remains rooted in the growth of the surrounding woodlands and the persistent productivity of the soil, reflecting a history of settlement that prioritized the utility of the land over the frantic pace of larger hubs. Life here moves with a deliberate, unadorned focus, marked by the simple sounds of local commerce and the routine movements of those who have made this place their home for generations. While the silence of the woods is occasionally broken by the hum of machinery or the distant movement of freight, the overarching sense remains one of quiet endurance. Even with the lure of more distant locales like Lake Ramsay, the identity of Amite stays firmly tied to the specific, inland geography of its own immediate horizon.
