How to Use This Glendora, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Glendora occupies a flat, expansive stretch of the Mississippi Delta where the horizon seems to press down upon the earth with a heavy, humid intensity. It lies 22.6 miles north-northwest of Greenwood, MS (from Greenwood, MS: bearing 343°T), and is situated 16.5 miles east-northeast of Ruleville. Sunlight here does not merely illuminate the landscape; it saturates the dark, alluvial soil until the fields shimmer with a liquid heat, casting long shadows across the rows of cotton and soy that define the valley floor. Only a mile to the west, the Tallahatchie River moves with a sluggish, deliberate gravity, its dark waters carving through the silt as if remembering the floods of a previous century. A mile to the east, the quiet surface of Bonnett Lake reflects the sky in a dull, metallic sheen, providing a still counterpoint to the slow, relentless motion of the nearby current. Though the distant heights of Annis Ridge remain a faint, ethereal suggestion on the far horizon, the immediate world of Glendora remains defined by the immense, level reach of the plains and the dense, tangled green of the thickets that line the water’s edge.

Agriculture remains the pulse of Glendora, an economy tethered to the seasonal cycles of the earth and the stubborn fertility of the black soil. The rhythms of life here are dictated by the planting and the harvest, a legacy that persists in the quiet streets and the weathered façades of local structures that have seen generations pass through the gate. Five miles away, the Theodore Roosevelt National Wildlife Refuge offers a sanctuary where the land is allowed to revert to its wilder state, providing a stark contrast to the manicured precision of the surrounding farmland. The air in Glendora carries the scent of damp earth and drying vegetation, a sensory reminder of the agrarian toil that built the settlement from the brush. Even as the modern world encroaches, the prevailing atmosphere remains one of profound patience, where the passage of time is measured not by clocks, but by the slow, steady turning of the seasons and the quiet persistence of the Delta landscape.

About This Glendora Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Glendora, Mississippi. Coordinates: 33.829282, -90.293144. 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 Glendora includes the ZIP code (38928), telephone area code (228), county seat of Tallahatchie County (Charleston), and school district assignment (West Tallahatchie School).

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.
