Explore Kirkville, 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 Kirkville, 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 Kirkville.
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.

Kirkville endures under a wide, heavy sky where the heat presses against the earth, ripening the fields that stretch toward the horizon. It lies 18.1 miles northeast of Tupelo, MS (from Tupelo, MS: bearing 42°T), and is situated 9.2 miles east-southeast of Baldwyn. Donivan Creek hums a low, persistent tune barely a mile away, carving through the loam and carrying the runoff of summer storms toward the lowlands. Beyond the immediate fields, the terrain rises toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Pea Ridge, a reminder of the ancient shifts in the bedrock. The air here holds a thickness that slows the stride, especially when the light at dusk turns the dust into a fine, suspended gold that settles over the tree lines and the quiet, unpaved edges of the road. To the west, the flat expanse of Pharr Flats offers a stark contrast to the woodland, providing a vast, open basin where the wind travels unobstructed across the tall, sun-bleached grasses.
Kirkville operates on a rhythm dictated by the soil and the slow, deliberate turn of the seasons, maintaining a character forged by generations of agrarian labor. Much of the surrounding life gravitates toward the Canal Section Wma, a protected expanse that preserves the integrity of the woods and provides a sanctuary for the creatures that thrive in the deep shade. While Ferguson Lake lies six miles distant, its presence is felt in the humidity that clings to the evening, softening the edges of the porch-front conversations that define the local pace. The economy remains tethered to the land, an inheritance of small-scale production and local trade that prefers the steady over the swift. Life in Kirkville persists in the quiet spaces between the harvest, where the history of the region is not found in grand monuments, but in the enduring habit of working the ground and watching the seasons cycle through the trees.

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.
