Explore New Hope, 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 New Hope, 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 New Hope.
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.

New Hope occupies a quiet expanse of land defined by the persistent, rhythmic presence of North Dry Creek, which carves a modest path through the local topography. It lies 23.2 miles west of Brookhaven, MS (from Brookhaven, MS: bearing 266°T), and is situated 33.6 miles east of Natchez. This inland terrain unfolds in a series of subtle rises and damp, shaded hollows, where the dense canopy of the Homochitto National Forest encroaches upon the borders of the property, offering a sense of seclusion that feels both ancient and immediate. At dusk, the light here turns a bruised, heavy gold, filtering through the tangled vines and hardwood trees to illuminate the fine red clay that defines the ground. Eight miles to the west, the surface of Okhissa Lake remains a flat, dark mirror, reflecting the heavy sky and the encroaching timberline that gives this part of the state its distinctive, somber depth.
New Hope reflects the character of a region built on the slow, deliberate work of the soil and the quiet endurance of those who cultivate it. The local economy remains tethered to the rhythms of the forest and the land, where the steady industry of timber management and small-scale agriculture has replaced the older, more labored patterns of the past. Life in New Hope moves with a cautious, unhurried cadence, governed less by the clock and more by the seasonal shifts in temperature and the humidity that hangs thick in the air during the summer months. There is little artifice here; the history of the place is held in the quiet intersections of gravel roads and the way the shadows of the pines lengthen across the fields as the day recedes, grounding New Hope in a reality that demands patience and a steady hand.

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.
