Explore Mendenhall, 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 Mendenhall, 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 Mendenhall.
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.

Mendenhall holds its own against the horizon, anchored by the persistent, dark currents of Sellers Creek that cut through the low-lying terrain like a slow, deliberate scar. It lies 22.6 miles south-southeast of Brandon, MS (from Brandon, MS: bearing 162°T), and is situated 10.0 miles northwest of Magee. The land here is defined by a dense, humid stillness where the air feels heavy with the scent of pine needles and damp earth, occasionally broken by the sharp, metallic heat of a summer afternoon. Beyond the immediate reach of the creek, the topography shifts into modest, pine-thickened elevations that rise toward the distant silhouette of Indian Mound Hill, a silent sentinel marking the edge of the local vision. The light at dusk here is thick and amber, catching the broad leaves of the thicket and turning the shadows into deep, bruised purples that stretch across the unpaved margins of the property lines.
Mendenhall retains the quiet, utilitarian architecture of a place built on the steady output of timber and the seasonal cycles of regional agriculture. The economy remains tethered to the rhythm of the land, with local commerce clustering around the center where the day-to-day work of the county persists without pretense. Residents moving between the local storefronts or making the short trek toward the recreational space of Magee City Park often carry the casual, tempered patience of those who live far from the frantic pace of the larger world. While the quietude of the region is absolute, there is a distinct sense of continuity in the way the local life unfolds, a subtle endurance that persists as reliably as the water flowing through the creek beds, miles away from any competing influence or the pull of the distant, crowded coasts.

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.
