How to Use This Leakesville, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Leakesville emerges from the dense, pine-shadowed landscape where the earth holds the heat of the afternoon long after the sun has begun its descent. It lies 43.5 miles east-southeast of Petal, MS (from Petal, MS: bearing 107°T), and is situated 16.0 miles north of Lucedale. Blakely Creek carves a winding path through the heavy clay, its dark waters moving with a deliberate, sluggish grace that dictates the cadence of the surrounding woodlands. Beyond the immediate tree line, the terrain rises toward the distant, modest elevation of Silver Hill, while the expansive, protected reaches of De Soto National Forest offer a vast, silent buffer against the encroaching pace of the outside world. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and crushed needles, a heavy, vegetative perfume that clings to the skin during the humid, golden hours before dusk.

Leakesville maintains a steady, internal gravity, rooted in the timber and agriculture that have long defined the labor of its people. The presence of Saluda Lake, a few miles removed, provides a quiet stillness to the local geography, reflecting the shifting violet hues of the sky as day turns to night. History here is not found in grand monuments, but in the enduring patterns of work and the slow, cyclical rhythm of the seasons that govern the local economy. Life in Leakesville functions with a quiet, observant patience, where the heavy, unhurried growth of the surrounding woods mirrors the measured way the residents navigate their days, finding a singular, understated beauty in the persistence of the landscape.

About This Leakesville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Leakesville, Mississippi. Coordinates: 31.155737, -88.557799. 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 Leakesville includes the ZIP code (39451), telephone area code (601), county seat of Greene County (Leakesville), and school district assignment (Greene 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.
