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 occupies a quiet expanse of northern Mississippi where the earth shifts from the heavy, dark loam of the lowlands into the subtle, persistent rise of the interior uplands. It lies 11.1 miles west of Tupelo, MS (from Tupelo, MS: bearing 279°T), and is situated 6.3 miles east-northeast of Pontotoc. Sunlight here possesses a distinct, syrupy quality, filtering through the humid air to catch the dust motes dancing above the fields and the thick, encroaching vines of kudzu that drape over the edges of the woodlands. Just a mile away, the dark, slow-moving waters of Mubby Creek carve a narrow path through the terrain, feeding the moisture into the soil that supports the surrounding timber and agriculture. To the west, the silhouettes of Birmingham Ridge delineate the horizon, a firm reminder of the geological spine that keeps the landscape from settling into a featureless plain, while the damp, fertile depressions of Connewah Bottom remain tucked away as reminders of the water’s ancient, patient work.
Longview maintains a steady, deliberate pace of life, anchored by a history defined more by the cycles of the harvest and the seasons than by the clamor of rapid industry. The proximity of Trace State Park provides a verdant sanctuary where the local rhythm is measured by the changing leaves and the migration of wildlife, drawing those who seek a moment of stillness away from the modern thoroughfares. Economy and tradition here are bound to the land, with local livelihoods often reflecting the agrarian heritage that first cleared these woods and organized the scattered homesteads. Whether observing the distant, shimmering surface of Pontotoc Lake or simply watching the evening light settle over the quiet, rural roads, Longview retains a sense of permanence, a place where the passage of time is marked by the deepening shadows and the cooling breath of the evening air.

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.
