How to Use This Bay Springs, Mississippi Map

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

Bay Springs occupies a quiet expanse of pine-studded uplands where the humid air hangs heavy with the scent of damp needles and cooling earth. It lies 21.7 miles north-northwest of Laurel, MS (from Laurel, MS: bearing 335°T), and is situated 28.8 miles south-southeast of Forest. The landscape unfolds in a series of subtle rises and shallow depressions, a terrain shaped by long-standing erosion that leaves the soil rich and deep. A mere mile away, Etehomo Creek carves a winding, shadowed path through the thicket, its dark water moving with a deliberate, sluggish grace that reflects the towering canopy above. To the northwest, the terrain rises toward the distant prominence of Sherman Hill, while the humid stillness is occasionally broken by the rustle of kudzu vines claiming the edges of the woodland.

Bay Springs emerged from the timber and railroad expansions of the nineteenth century, its identity forged by the steady rhythm of the sawmills and the commerce that once followed the tracks. Today, the economy remains tethered to the land, balancing light industry with the quiet persistence of agricultural trade that defines the surrounding region. Life here moves with an observant, measured pace, far removed from the frantic pulse of larger centers, yet connected to the wider world through the persistent labor of its people. Beyond the immediate reach of the streets, the rugged terrain of Cat'S Den Cave (Bobcat Bluff) Fee offers a glimpse into the raw, unpolished geology that defines this interior corner of the state, standing as a silent reminder of the wilder, older history that predates the roads and the brick storefronts of the center.

About This Bay Springs Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Bay Springs, Mississippi. Coordinates: 31.979042, -89.287284. 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 Bay Springs includes the ZIP code (39422), telephone area code (601), county seat of Jasper County (Bay Springs), and school district assignment (West Jasper 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.
