How to Use This Caledonia, Mississippi Map

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

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 Caledonia, Mississippi

Caledonia is a locality in Lowndes County, Mississippi, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,135. The population density is 155.1 people per km².

Caledonia occupies a quiet expanse of northern Lowndes County where the landscape settles into a steady, verdant rhythm of pine stands and agricultural fields. It lies 14.2 miles north-northeast of Columbus, MS (from Columbus, MS: bearing 25°T), and is situated 19.5 miles east-northeast of West Point. Howard Creek meanders a mere mile from the center, its shaded banks providing a cool reprieve from the heat that gathers in the heavy, humid afternoons of late summer. Far to the south, the terrain holds its own character, though one might trace the distant contour of the Walnut Hills against the horizon on a day when the air is stripped of its haze. The land here does not rush; it waits, defined by the slow persistence of growth and the long, amber shadows that stretch across the open pastures as the sun dips low.

Caledonia carries the weight of a history rooted in the grit of early settlers who found purpose in the fertile soil and timber of the region. While the local economy remains tied to the modest commerce of the surrounding acres, the identity of Caledonia is anchored by a sense of continuity, where the generations have tended to the same earth for decades. Those seeking the stillness of the water often drift toward the Lamar County Public Fishing Lake or the nearby County Lake, places that serve as a quiet counterpoint to the busy efficiency of the modern world. Life in Caledonia moves with a deliberate pace, unconcerned by the frantic demands of the distant cities, favoring instead the steady work of the seasons and the simple, enduring connections of a place that knows itself well.

About This Caledonia Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Caledonia, Mississippi. Coordinates: 33.682892, -88.324481. 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 Caledonia includes the ZIP code (39740), telephone area code (662), county seat of Lowndes County (Columbus), and school district assignment (Lowndes County 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.
