How to Use This Hickory, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Hickory occupies a quiet expanse of the Mississippi landscape where the earth holds the deep, rust-colored memory of iron-rich clay. It lies 19.1 miles west of Meridian, MS (from Meridian, MS: bearing 260°T), and is situated 8.0 miles east of Newton. The terrain defines itself through a series of modest, timbered elevations that rise toward the horizon, where the distant, hazy silhouette of Turkey Ridge breaks the sky during the clearest hours of the afternoon. Potterchitto Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the local topography just a mile away, its waters moving with a deliberate, sluggish grace beneath the overhanging boughs of sweetgum and oak. Sunlight here possesses a heavy, amber quality that seems to thicken as it filters through the dense canopy, illuminating the fine, suspended dust that dances above the forest floor. Five miles distant, the still surface of Wickware Pond offers a mirror for the shifting clouds, providing a silent, cool respite from the heat that gathers in the low-lying fields.

History in Hickory remains written in the weathered grain of wooden storefronts and the persistence of the rail lines that once anchored its commerce. The economy reflects a steady, agrarian patience, grounded in the cultivation of the soil and the quiet labor of those who manage the surrounding tracts of pine and hardwood. Seven miles from the center, the quietude of Unknown Park preserves a sliver of the original wild, inviting an occasional traveler to observe the way the shadows lengthen across the tall grasses as evening approaches. Life in Hickory moves with the measured cadence of the seasons, indifferent to the frantic pace of the wider world, favoring instead the small, tangible rituals of a place that understands its own boundaries. Even the air here feels seasoned by the long duration of its settlement, carrying the faint, dry scent of pine needles and the subtle, metallic tang of the creek beds that define the local geography.

About This Hickory Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Hickory, Mississippi. Coordinates: 32.317644, -89.025611. 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 Hickory includes the ZIP code (39332), telephone area code (601), county seat of Newton County (Decatur), and school district assignment (Newton 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.
