How to Use This Meadville, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Meadville occupies a landscape defined by the quiet persistence of pine and hardwood, where the earth rises and falls in long, soft swells of red clay. It lies 27.9 miles west-southwest of Brookhaven, MS (from Brookhaven, MS: bearing 255°T), and is situated 30.4 miles east-southeast of Natchez. The Middle Fork Homochitto River carves a narrow, winding path through the heavy loam just a mile away, its dark waters reflecting the towering canopy of the Homochitto National Forest that envelops the outskirts. Sunlight filters through the dense timber in slanted, amber shafts, illuminating the fine dust that hangs in the humid air during the late afternoon. Four miles to the east, the stillness of Okhissa Lake offers a glassy interruption to the woodland, its surface undisturbed save for the occasional ripple of a rising fish or the flight of a heron.

Meadville carries the weight of a long-settled interior, where the economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the timber harvest and the slow yield of the surrounding soil. The legacy of the lumber industry is written into the local character, visible in the weathered architecture and the deliberate, unforced pace of life that defines the daily routine. Residents acknowledge the isolation of the inland hills as a virtue, maintaining a culture that values the steady endurance of the land over the frantic pace of larger hubs. Even as the decades shift the nature of local commerce, the proximity to the expansive tracts of the Homochitto National Forest ensures that the identity of Meadville remains firmly rooted in the deep, quiet life of the woods.

About This Meadville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Meadville, Mississippi. Coordinates: 31.472393, -90.896768. 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 Meadville includes the ZIP code (39653), telephone area code (228), county seat of Franklin County (Meadville), and school district assignment (Franklin 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.
