How to Use This Dennis, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Dennis unfolds across a landscape of heavy clay and hardwoods, where the steady, dark pulse of Jourdan Creek carves a path through the quiet earth. It lies 30.9 miles south-southeast of Corinth, MS (from Corinth, MS: bearing 147°T), and is situated 9.5 miles north-northwest of Red Bay. The terrain rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Chinquapin Ridge, while the nearby basin of Ten Island holds the morning mist like a shallow, earthen bowl. Here, the air carries a weight of damp loam and pine, and at dusk, the light turns a bruised, singular gold that clings to the bark of aging oaks. Only three miles away, the expansive, still waters of Bay Springs Lake mirror the shifting sky, anchoring the horizon in a vast, blue silence that defines the local weather and the slow, deliberate turn of the seasons.

Dennis retains the character of a place where the work of the land has long dictated the rhythm of the days. History here is quiet, marked by the steady industry of those who carved a living from the timber and the soil, far from the frantic pace of larger hubs. Nearby, Tishomingo State Park preserves the rugged, rocky outcrops and deep ravines that once challenged early settlers, serving as a reminder of the terrain’s ancient, unyielding nature. Modern life in Dennis moves with a measured cadence, shaped by the local economy’s reliance on the surrounding woods and the persistent, quiet commerce of the road. It is a place where the echoes of the past are caught in the thick, humid heat of midsummer and the stark, skeleton-limbs of winter, grounding every inhabitant in the solid reality of the hill country.

About This Dennis Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Dennis, Mississippi. Coordinates: 34.558707, -88.226155. 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 Dennis includes the ZIP code (38838), telephone area code (662), county seat of Tishomingo County (Iuka), and school district assignment (Tishomingo County Schools).

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.
