How to Use This Pope, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Pope occupies a quiet intersection of earth and sky where the flat, fertile reaches of the lowlands begin to yield to the subtle, stubborn rise of the interior hills. It lies 26.6 miles west-southwest of Oxford, MS (from Oxford, MS: bearing 247°T), and is situated 6.7 miles south of Batesville. The air here holds a heavy, humid stillness that seems to press against the green canopy of hardwoods, while the persistent, winding course of Peters Creek carves a shallow, rhythmic path through the soil just a mile from the center of the settlement. To the east, the silhouette of Oak Ridge marks the horizon with a dark, serrated line, standing as a silent sentinel over the fields. As the afternoon light wanes, it turns the dust of the unpaved lanes into a fine, gilded powder, casting long shadows that stretch across the fields and soften the hard edges of the local architecture.

Pope maintains a pace dictated by the seasonal cycle of the land and the slow, deliberate work of those who tend it. Economic life remains tethered to the productivity of the surrounding acreage, where the rhythm of planting and harvest has defined the character of the inhabitants for generations. Four miles away, Enid Lake serves as a focal point for the region, its expansive waters offering a vast, reflective mirror to the sky and providing a place for the quiet industry of recreation. While the memory of past eras lingers in the weathered wood of older structures, the present reality of Pope is found in the steady, quiet endurance of a life lived in accordance with the terrain, far from the frantic currents of more densely populated horizons.

About This Pope Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Pope, Mississippi. Coordinates: 34.215111, -89.947868. 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 Pope includes the ZIP code (38658), telephone area code (601, 769), county seat of Panola County (Batesville), and school district assignment (South Panola 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.
