How to Use This Merigold, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Merigold holds the flat, fertile expanse of the Mississippi Delta in a quiet, enduring embrace. It lies 6.6 miles north of Cleveland, MS (from Cleveland, MS: bearing 359°T), and is situated 12.7 miles northwest of Ruleville. Jones Bayou traces a slow, deliberate path past the outskirts of Merigold, its dark waters reflecting the heavy, humid sky that hangs low over the surrounding fields. The land here remains stubbornly level, an alluvial plain where the horizon stretches thin and taut, occasionally broken by the distant, hazy suggestion of Egypt Ridge rising against the western sky. Only four miles away, the quiet waters of Raineys Lake offer a sanctuary for the local fauna, while the nearby Farm Service Agency Interest Of Ms provides a protected corridor for the wildlife that thrives in this damp, sun-drenched soil. During the long, golden afternoons, the light thickens, turning the air into a shimmering veil that seems to pause the very movement of the day.

Agriculture defines the pulse of Merigold, where the rhythm of the seasons is marked by the planting and harvesting of cotton and soybeans across the vast, unbroken acreage. The economy remains tethered to the black, heavy soil, a legacy that traces back through decades of cultivation and the labor of those who first broke this ground. Beyond the fields, the quiet streets are lined with architecture that speaks to a century of persistence, where the storefronts and homes maintain a steady, unadorned dignity. Life in Merigold proceeds with a measured gravity, shaped by the heat that rises from the asphalt and the deep, fertile earth that demands constant, humble attention from those who call the place home.

About This Merigold Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Merigold, Mississippi. Coordinates: 33.839001, -90.726209. 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 Merigold includes the ZIP code (38759), telephone area code (662), county seat of Bolivar County (Cleveland), and school district assignment (Cleveland 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.
