How to Use This Mathiston, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Mathiston occupies a quiet expanse of the interior landscape where the earth settles into a slow, deliberate cadence of open fields and encroaching woodlands. It lies 18.7 miles west-northwest of Starkville, MS (from Starkville, MS: bearing 289°T), and is situated 8.2 miles east of Eupora. The horizon is defined by the gentle, tectonic persistence of Lolly Hill, which rises eight miles away to catch the amber light of late afternoon, casting long shadows across the local terrain. Moisture hangs heavy in the humid air, cooling slightly as it drifts from the nearby Pigeon Roost Creek, a modest artery that winds through the brush just one mile from the center of activity. The regional flora, dominated by thickets of kudzu that reclaim abandoned edges and the dense, dark growth of the distant Tombigbee National Forest, frames the view, lending the environment a sense of deep, undisturbed seclusion far from the restlessness of the distant coast.

Mathiston functions as a steady center for the surrounding agricultural life, where the rhythm of the day is dictated by the cultivation of the soil and the movement of freight along the tracks. The legacy of the railway remains a primary influence, having served as the catalyst for the early settlement and shaping the linear development of the streets that define the local economy. Commerce here is quiet and functional, tied to the needs of the land and the people who work it, while the proximity to the Mississippi State University School of Forest Resources provides a steady, scholarly undercurrent to the professional life of the region. Residents often look toward the broader horizon, finding a sense of scale in the vast, inland geography that separates them from the outside world, maintaining a modest, self-contained existence that values the passage of time over the urgency of modern pace.

About This Mathiston Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Mathiston, Mississippi. Coordinates: 33.540121, -89.124231. 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 Mathiston includes the ZIP code (39752), telephone area code (662), county seat of Webster County (Walthall), and school district assignment (Webster 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.
