How to Use This Redwater, Mississippi Map

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

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.

About Redwater, Mississippi

Redwater is a locality in Leake County, Mississippi, United States. It is a small community with a population of 683. The population density is 25.1 people per km². Redwater is located at 32.7928°N, 89.5534°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP code: 39051.

Redwater exhales a humid, golden warmth that seems to slow the very pulse of the afternoon as the sun dips toward the Government Hills. It lies 31.0 miles east-northeast of Canton, MS (from Canton, MS: bearing 70°T), and is situated 2.4 miles north of Carthage. The sluggish, dark-stained flow of Town Creek carves a winding path through the landscape, its banks thick with the heavy scent of damp earth and tangled vines that cling to the pine trunks. Only four miles away, the surface of Langston Lake mirrors the shifting violet of the dusk, holding the stillness of the deep woods in its glass. Beyond the immediate canopy, the land expands into a quiet expanse of clay and silt, where the light turns thick and syrupy, catching the dust kicked up by the evening breeze.

Redwater carries the weight of a long-settled quiet, a place where the economy still leans into the slow rotation of the seasons and the yield of the surrounding fields. Generations have anchored their lives here, moving between the modest storefronts and the verdant, shaded trails of Mcmillian Park, where the trees hold the silence of the past in their branches. The town operates with a gravity that honors the labor of the soil and the legacy of those who first cleared these woods to build homes against the encroaching thicket. On quiet days, the distance to the distant, open stretches of Palmetto Flats feels vast, leaving the residents of Redwater to find their own measure of time in the steady, rhythmic persistence of the local harvest and the persistent, unhurried growth of the timber.

About This Redwater Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Redwater, Mississippi. Coordinates: 32.792793, -89.55336. 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 Redwater includes the ZIP code (39051), telephone area code (601, 769), county seat of Leake County (Carthage), and school district assignment (Leake 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.
