Explore Lucedale, 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 Lucedale, 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 Lucedale.
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.

Lucedale anchors a quiet expanse of pine-heavy timberland where the persistent murmur of Depot Creek marks the pulse of the local geography. It lies 35.6 miles north of Moss Point, MS (from Moss Point, MS: bearing 355°T), and is situated 16.0 miles south of Leakesville. The landscape unfolds in a series of wooded ridges and deep, verdant hollows, stretching toward the distant, hazy silhouettes of the Whiskey Creek Hills. Sunlight filters through the canopy in thin, amber shafts, illuminating the quiet progress of the creek as it winds through the undergrowth. Within the boundaries of Lucedale Municipal Park, the air holds a stillness that seems to suspend the afternoon, heavy with the scent of damp earth and cooling needles. Farther out, the terrain dips into the low, sheltered basin of Reed Flat, where the horizon broadens and the shadows of late day lengthen across the open ground.
Lucedale emerged from the intersection of timber extraction and the steady expansion of regional rail, a history reflected in the lingering industrial spirit that still defines the local economy today. The daily life here remains tied to the cycles of the forest and the modest, industrious pace of agricultural trade, far removed from the frantic tempo of larger urban centers. Residents move with a deliberate grace, accustomed to the seasonal shifts that turn the surrounding woods from a vibrant, humid green into a muted, rust-colored winter dormancy. While White Lake provides a singular, quiet focal point for those seeking the water’s edge, the character of Lucedale is defined more by the enduring presence of the pine forests and the solitary, expansive nature of the inland plains. It is a place that keeps its own counsel, shaped by the steady, quiet work of those who have long called these woods their own.

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.
