Explore Sardis, 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 Sardis, 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 Sardis.
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.

Sardis occupies a quiet intersection of the Mississippi landscape, where the flat, fertile reaches of the Delta begin to transition into the stubborn, uneven terrain of the upland hills. It lies 23.1 miles west-northwest of Oxford, MS (from Oxford, MS: bearing 282°T), and is situated 8.8 miles north of Batesville. The humidity here carries a heavy, velvet weight that lingers long after the sun dips below the horizon, casting a long, amber glow over the kudzu that climbs the rusted fences and swallows the skeletons of old oaks. Nearby, North Fork Bear Creek cuts a narrow, winding path through the soil, its presence marked by a dense corridor of hardwoods that turn a bruised purple in the twilight. To the west, the expansive waters of Sardis Lake pull the light from the sky, creating a vast, shimmering mirror that dictates the rhythm of the local climate, while the silhouette of Cemetery Ridge sits distantly against the clouds, a permanent, stoic boundary to the east.
Sardis maintains a pace of life tethered to the slow cycles of agriculture and the maintenance of the land, with the nearby Charles Ray Nix Wma providing a sprawling, protected expanse that preserves the region’s native character. The local economy has long been shaped by the quiet industry of the interior, where the work of the day is measured in the steady persistence of field and timber rather than the frantic motion of the city. Decades of trade and transit have left their mark on the storefronts and the architecture, where weathered brick and peeling paint tell a story of resilience that avoids the polish of modern development. There is a profound stillness in the way the air moves through the pines, a quality of silence that seems to collect in the corners of the streets, reminding any traveler that time here is not a resource to be spent, but a slow, unfolding presence.

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.
