How to Use This Ethel, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Ethel occupies a quiet reach of the Mississippi interior, where the land settles into a rhythmic succession of ridges and shallow, shaded hollows. It lies 43.8 miles west-southwest of Starkville, MS (from Starkville, MS: bearing 239°T), and is situated 8.3 miles east-northeast of Kosciusko. The morning light here possesses a peculiar, heavy clarity, catching the dew on tall grasses before the heat of the day draws a haze over the dense, encroaching woodlands. Just a mile to the west, the dark, slow-moving waters of LeFlore Creek carve a winding path through the silt, providing a persistent, low-frequency pulse to the surrounding geography. Beyond the immediate canopy, the distant silhouette of the Noxubee Hills defines the horizon, a muted charcoal line against the pale sky that anchors the perspective of the entire landscape.

Ethel maintains a steady, deliberate pace that favors the memory of the soil over the frantic pace of the modern world. The local economy remains tethered to the patterns of the land, with agriculture and timber holding the primary weight of the daily labor that keeps the clock ticking. Residents often look toward the Yockanookany Wma, where the preservation of the native thickets offers a sanctuary for the local fauna and a quiet testament to the enduring wildness of the region. Even when the day’s work concludes, the atmosphere lingers in the stillness of the porches, where the proximity to the silence of the woods feels more substantial than any distant history.

About This Ethel Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Ethel, Mississippi. Coordinates: 33.120406, -89.465906. 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 Ethel includes the ZIP code (39067), telephone area code (601, 769), county seat of Attala County (Kosciusko), and school district assignment (Attala 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.
