Explore Silver City, 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 Silver City, 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 Silver City.
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.

Silver City emerges from the flat, alluvial expanse of the Delta like a quiet thought held in the mind of the plains. It lies 17.5 miles north-northwest of Yazoo City, MS (from Yazoo City, MS: bearing 342°T), and is situated 34.3 miles south-southwest of Greenwood. Silver Creek carves a languid, muddy path through the silty earth, its slow-moving current reflecting the heavy, humid sky that presses down upon the fields. To the west, the landscape stretches toward the horizon in a vast, unbroken horizon of agricultural rows, while the nearby waters of Hard Cash Lake hold the stillness of the afternoon in their dark, quiet depths. The light here has a tactile weight, thick with the scent of damp soil and the encroaching shadows of the afternoon, turning the edges of the horizon into a soft, indistinct blur of gray and green.
Agriculture remains the primary pulse of Silver City, where the cycle of the seasons dictates the cadence of every workday. Beyond the fields, the proximity of the Theodore Roosevelt National Wildlife Refuge provides a sanctuary for the migratory birds and local fauna that move through the dense brush and timber. History clings to the architecture of the older structures, where weathered brick and peeling paint tell of a time when the rails and the river dictated the flow of commerce. Life in Silver City operates at a measured, deliberate pace, defined by the persistence of the land and the quiet endurance of those who work it, finding a kind of grace in the simple, repetitive labor of the seasons.

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.
