How to Use This Richland, Mississippi Map

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

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 Richland, Mississippi

Richland is a locality in Holmes County, Mississippi, United States. It has a population of approximately 7,137. The population density is 220.0 people per km². Richland is located at 32.2304°N, 90.1596°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. Richland is an incorporated locality. ZIP codes: 39146, 39095, 39166.

Richland occupies a stretch of fertile, inland terrain where the heavy, humid air of the southern interior settles over the landscape like a fine, golden veil. It lies 25.2 miles north of Canton, MS (from Canton, MS: bearing 7°T), and is situated 10.3 miles southwest of Durant. The horizon remains largely level, though the distant suggestion of Beech Ridge offers a pale, hazy outline against the sky on the clearest of days. Vegetation here is marked by the persistent, climbing reach of kudzu and the quiet, ghostly drape of Spanish moss upon the trees. Nearby, the slow, murky waters of Mills Creek wind through the undergrowth, while the quiet expanse of Bisland Bayou provides a still, reflective surface that catches the violet light of late afternoon. Beyond these immediate waters, the land remains largely defined by the dense, shadowed green of thickets and the open, sun-baked stretches of ground that characterize this reach of the continent.

Richland serves as a pragmatic hub of commerce and movement, its character shaped by the steady, industrial pulse of logistics and the quiet endurance of its residents. The presence of Holmes County State Park nearby provides a sanctuary of protected timber and silence, a counterpoint to the hum of the local economy that relies on the transit of goods across the inland plains. Life in Richland moves with a deliberate, measured cadence, rooted in a history of labor and the slow, seasonal shifts of the earth. The architecture and the habits of the people reflect a practical, hard-worn resilience, where the legacy of the soil remains visible in the way the town organizes its daily rhythms around the sun and the movement of the seasons.

About This Richland Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Richland, Mississippi. Coordinates: 32.230413, -90.159622. 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 Richland includes the ZIP code (39146, 39095, 39166), telephone area code (601, 769), county seat of Holmes County (Lexington), and school district assignment (Rankin 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.
