Explore Jumpertown, Mississippi, with this interactive street and satellite map.
This page also offers TOPO MAPS — the official USGS topographic sheets — plus USGS aerial imagery, a labelled USNG grid overlay, a distance and bearing tool, and a GPS grid-reference readout. See How to Use This Map below.
This interactive map shows the street layout and satellite imagery for Jumpertown, 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 Jumpertown.
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.

Jumpertown anchors itself firmly upon the high, red-clay ridges of Prentiss County, where the earth holds a stubborn, iron-rich hue that stains the tires of passing trucks. It lies 17.4 miles south-southwest of Corinth, MS (from Corinth, MS: bearing 208°T), and is situated 6.6 miles west-northwest of Booneville. The landscape unfolds as a series of undulating swells and sudden, shaded depressions, defined by the persistent presence of the Tippah Hills rising to the west. A mile to the north, the quiet current of Wolf Creek carves a narrow, winding path through the dense thickets, its banks lined with the tangled, pale roots of sycamores that drink from the silt. Further afield, the low-slung basin of King Hollow traps the morning mist, while the still, dark surface of Cox Lake reflects the heavy, humid sky, offering a sanctuary for the stillness that settles over the rural horizon as the sun begins its long, slow retreat.
Jumpertown maintains a character forged by the steady, unpretentious labor of agriculture and the quiet endurance of families who have worked these fields for generations. The economy remains rooted in the soil, with wide tracts of timber and crops defining the local rhythm, punctuated by the occasional hum of light industry that keeps the area connected to the broader commerce of the region. Residents often find their way toward Westside City Park for the simple grace of open space, a six-mile journey that serves as a common reprieve from the daily tasks of maintenance and harvest. Life here moves according to the turning of the seasons, a slow and deliberate cycle where the passage of time is measured less by the clock and more by the height of the corn and the shifting, golden quality of the light that illuminates the vast, inland plains at dusk.

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.
