Explore Benndale, Mississippi, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Benndale, 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 Benndale.
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.

Benndale marks a quiet convergence where the dark, silt-heavy waters of Mill Creek cut a path through the dense pine thickets of the interior. It lies 31.2 miles north of D'Iberville, MS (from D'Iberville, MS: bearing 9°T), and is situated 19.5 miles east of Wiggins. The landscape rises into the subtle, weathered elevations of the Whiskey Creek Hills, which cast long, violet shadows across the pine needles as the sun dips low. Beyond these slopes, the earth flattens into the expansive, hushed stretches of the De Soto National Forest, where the air hangs thick and heavy with the scent of damp loam and resin. It is a place where light filters through the canopy in thin, dusty shafts, illuminating the quiet persistence of a land that remains largely indifferent to the frantic pace of the outside world.
Benndale bears the quiet imprint of a timber-driven history, where the economy was long defined by the rhythmic bite of the saw and the slow haul of logs from the surrounding woodlands. The proximity of the De Soto National Forest continues to shape the character of the residents, who move with a deliberate, measured gait that mirrors the slow drift of water in the nearby creek beds. While the distant, elusive sprawl of Reed Flat lies to the west and the stillness of Hog Pond sits miles away in the brush, the local life remains anchored to the immediate, tangible reality of the forest floor and the turning of the seasons. Here, the passage of time is measured not by clocks, but by the deepening green of the pines and the steady, unyielding growth of the timber that anchors Benndale to the soil.

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.
