How to Use This Taylorsville, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Taylorsville emerges from the dense pine forests of Mississippi as a quiet intersection of timbered land and enduring patience. It lies 3.2 miles north of Byram, MS (from Byram, MS: bearing 7°T), and is situated 5.9 miles south-southwest of Jackson. The landscape surrounding Taylorsville unfolds in a series of modest elevations that soften into the distance, far removed from the clamor of the coast. Only a mile away, the quiet waters of Swan Lake reflect the shifting patterns of the clouds, while the nearby Cany Creek carves a narrow, persistent path through the loamy earth. During the height of the afternoon, the light filters through the canopy in long, amber needles, illuminating the stillness of the Terry where the wilder edges of the woods reclaim the frame of the horizon.

Economic life in Taylorsville has long been tethered to the harvest of the surrounding forests, a tradition that shapes the rhythm of the workdays as surely as the seasons. While the distant silhouette of Beech Ridge remains a faint, hazy suggestion of height far to the north, the local outlook focuses on the immediate productivity of the soil and the legacy of the timber industry. The character of the people is marked by an observant reserve, a quality perhaps encouraged by the vast, quiet stretches of land that separate Taylorsville from the more frantic pace of the wider world. Life here moves with a deliberate gravity, anchored by the cycles of the earth and a collective memory that values the steady, unadorned persistence of the regional way of life.

About This Taylorsville Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Taylorsville, Mississippi. Coordinates: 31.832174, -89.433973. 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 Taylorsville includes the ZIP code (39212, 39168), telephone area code (601), county seat of Hinds County (Jackson), and school district assignment (Smith 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.
