Explore Longview, 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 Longview, 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 Longview.
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.

Longview emerges from the quiet, verdant interior of the state as a place where the earth leans into the slow, deliberate work of the seasons. It lies 23.5 miles southeast of Tupelo, MS (from Tupelo, MS: bearing 142°T), and is situated 2.1 miles east of Amory. Burketts Creek carves a shallow, wandering path through the landscape, its banks lined with dense thickets that catch the amber light of late afternoon. Two miles distant, the waters of McAlpine Lake hold the sky in a mirror of still, dark glass, while the faint, hazy suggestion of Pea Ridge marks the horizon like a bruised thumbprint against the clouds. Gilmore Park provides a modest, groomed sanctuary of green near the center of the landscape, offering a brief respite where the wind moves through the pines with a dry, rhythmic hush that defines the local atmosphere.
Longview maintains its character through an economy deeply tethered to the soil and the quiet endurance of its residents. Fields of cotton and soy extend toward the horizon in a patchwork of muted greens and browns, reflecting a history built on the stubborn persistence of agriculture and the small-scale commerce that keeps the local pulse steady. The air here carries the scent of damp earth and coming rain, a heavy, fertile sweetness that lingers long after the sun has retreated. Life in Longview moves with a cadence set by the harvest and the changing light, a steady, unadorned existence that finds its own distinctive beauty in the uncomplicated lines of the horizon and the reliable, slow-moving currents of the creek.

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.
