How to Use This Glendale, Mississippi Map

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

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 Glendale, Mississippi

Glendale is a locality in Oktibbeha County, Mississippi, United States. It has a population of approximately 1,681. The population density is 398.2 people per km². Glendale is located at 31.3680°N, 89.3086°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 39759, 39401.

Glendale occupies a quiet expanse of inland territory where the horizon is defined by the steady, unyielding presence of the earth rather than the drama of distant peaks. It lies 1.5 miles north-northeast of Starkville, MS (from Starkville, MS: bearing 34°T), and is situated 1.4 miles north-northwest of Mississippi State. The landscape here is characterized by a low, rhythmic undulation of terrain that stretches toward the hazy silhouette of the Walnut Hills, visible only as a faint, jagged ink-line against the darkening sky at dusk. Nearby, the banks of Hollis Creek carve a narrow, mud-slicked path through the heavy soil, providing a constant, low-frequency murmur that punctuates the stillness of the afternoon. At the edge of the local settlement, Moncrief Park offers a modest clearing where the light filters through the canopy in long, amber slats, illuminating the dust motes that hang suspended in the humid, motionless air.

Glendale serves as a quiet anchor for the surrounding agricultural tracts, its history tied to the slow, deliberate cultivation of the land and the modest commerce that grew in the wake of early homesteading. While the economy remains anchored in the rhythms of seasonal labor and regional trade, the proximity of the Mississippi State University School of Forest Resources, located eleven miles away, brings a persistent focus on the stewardship of the timber and flora that dominate the local horizon. Life in Glendale moves with the measured cadence of a clock pendulum, undisturbed by the frantic pace of larger hubs. To the west, the waters of Camps Lake sit perfectly still, acting as a mirror for the shifting colors of the sky, a reflective surface that seems to capture the very temperament of a place where the passage of time is measured not by hours, but by the gradual change of the leaves and the cooling of the soil.

About This Glendale Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Glendale, Mississippi. Coordinates: 31.368016, -89.308628. 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 Glendale includes the ZIP code (39759, 39401), telephone area code (662, 601), county seat of Oktibbeha County (Starkville), and school district assignment (Forrest 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.
