How to Use This Lynchburg, Mississippi Map

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

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.

About Lynchburg, Mississippi

Lynchburg is a locality in DeSoto County, Mississippi, United States. It has a population of approximately 2,466. The population density is 492.6 people per km². Lynchburg is located at 34.9620°N, 90.1071°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 38637, 38680, 39041.

Lynchburg stretches across a landscape defined by the quiet, heavy humidity of the interior plains, where the sun pulls a thick, golden haze over the earth at the close of every day. It lies 3.5 miles west of Horn Lake, MS (from Horn Lake, MS: bearing 278°T), and is situated 5.1 miles west-southwest of Southaven. The physical character of Lynchburg is shaped by a flat, fertile expanse that holds the heat long after dusk, with the vegetation clinging to the moisture of the low-lying terrain. Just two miles away, the dark, slow-moving currents of Horn Lake Creek carve a path through the silt, while the distant Josie Harry Towhead lies eight miles off, a reminder of the subtle, ancient depressions that define the regional topography. At 301 Ball Park, the grass grows thick and resilient, providing a center for activity where the air feels weighted with the scent of damp soil and the impending stillness of the coming night.

Lynchburg carries the quiet gravity of a place built upon the rhythms of agriculture and the persistent, slow labor of the land. Economic life here remains tied to the cycles of the soil, reflecting a history that values endurance over the frantic pace of more urbanized centers. While the proximity to Lake McKellar, located eight miles from the center, offers a stillness to the regional horizon, the daily life of Lynchburg is defined by its own internal momentum and the steady, unadorned work of its residents. The architecture here favors utility and resilience, standing as a plain, honest witness to the years, while the local character is marked by an observant, watchful patience that seems to rise from the very dust of the fields.

About This Lynchburg Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Lynchburg, Mississippi. Coordinates: 34.961972, -90.107084. 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 Lynchburg includes the ZIP code (38637, 38680, 39041), telephone area code (601, 769), county seat of DeSoto County (Hernando), and school district assignment (DeSoto 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.
