How to Use This Hazlehurst, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Hazlehurst emerges from the pine-thickened loam of the Mississippi interior, where the horizon remains defined by the persistent, soft geometry of the southern woodland. It lies 19.6 miles north of Brookhaven, MS (from Brookhaven, MS: bearing 8°T), and is situated 9.1 miles south-southwest of Crystal Springs. Sunlight filters through the dense canopy in muted shafts, illuminating the quiet passage of Johnson Creek as it meanders through the damp earth, while the still, reflective surface of Lake Hazle gathers the sky in its depths. Far to the south, the landscape remains anchored in the continental interior, far removed from the volatility of the coast, leaving the air heavy with the scent of damp pine needles and warming clay. On clear days, the distant silhouette of the Scutchillo Hills rises like a pale, jagged bruise against the blue, marking the edge of a world that feels both vast and intently focused on the immediate soil.

Economic life in Hazlehurst has long been tethered to the rhythmic demands of agriculture and the steady, quiet commerce of the rail line, which once served as the central artery for the region's timber and cotton yields. The legacy of these industries lingers in the sturdy, weathered brick facades of the center, where the pace of the day is dictated by the slow shift of shadows across the pavement rather than the frantic urgency of larger hubs. Local life often finds its recreation within the quiet boundaries of Hazlehurst Youth Park, a space where the community gathers under the shade of ancient oaks to mark the passage of seasons. This is a place where the weight of history is not shouted but carried in the deliberate, measured speech of its residents, who navigate the complications of the present while remaining deeply rooted in the traditions of the landscape.

About This Hazlehurst Map Page

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.
