How to Use This Jonestown, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Jonestown occupies a stretch of the flat, alluvial plain where the horizon pulls away in a wide, shimmering arc, revealing a landscape defined by the heavy, fertile potential of the soil. It lies 2.3 miles south of Vicksburg, MS (from Vicksburg, MS: bearing 176°T), and is situated 2.9 miles west of Beechwood. The land here holds a quiet intensity, with the nearby waters of Durden Creek carving a slow, deliberate path through the earth, while Brown Lake sits in stillness only a mile away, its surface often reflecting the thick, humid light of the afternoon. To the east, the distant silhouette of the Walnut Hills rises against the sky, a faint suggestion of elevation that contrasts with the absolute levelness of the fields surrounding Jonestown. At the center of the immediate landscape, Bazinski Park provides a small, cultivated patch of green, offering a place where the air hangs heavy with the scent of damp earth and the subtle, persistent growth of the season.

Agriculture serves as the pulse of the local economy, with vast, open rows of crops dictating the seasonal rhythm of the people who work the land. The history of Jonestown is rooted in the labor of those who turned this stubborn, rich ground into a livelihood, establishing a character marked by resilience and the slow, deliberate pace of the rural Delta. Life here moves in accordance with the turning of the harvest, and the quiet streets often seem to hold the weight of generations who navigated the same humid, sun-drenched afternoons. While the modern world continues to change, the essence of the place remains tied to the cycles of the earth, where the shadows grow long across the fields and the evening light settles over the landscape with a profound, unhurried gravity.

About This Jonestown Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Jonestown, Mississippi. Coordinates: 34.322154, -90.454274. 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 Jonestown includes the ZIP code (39180, 38834, 39194), telephone area code (601, 769), county seat of Warren County (Vicksburg), and school district assignment (Coahoma 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.
