How to Use This Union, Mississippi Map

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

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.

Union emerges from the low, red-clay ridges of the interior, where the landscape is defined by the heavy, humid stillness of the deep woods and the persistent growth of pine and oak. It lies 30.4 miles northwest of Laurel, MS (from Laurel, MS: bearing 311°T), and is situated 14.6 miles east-northeast of Magee. The terrain rises toward the modest elevation of Flat Rock Hill, a weathered spine of stone that breaks the monotony of the surrounding timberlands. Nearby, the water of Ely Creek moves with a deliberate, muddy sluggishness through the brush, carving a narrow path that dictates the drainage of the immediate valley. Sunlight here takes on a thick, honeyed quality in the late afternoon, casting long shadows across the fields that stretch toward the distant, quiet boundary of the Bienville National Forest.

Union maintains a pulse dictated by the turning of the seasons and the demands of its industrial legacy, standing as a point of commerce where the timber and manufacturing trades have long provided a steady, if quiet, livelihood. The people of Union exist in a space where the rhythm of work is punctuated by the presence of the nearby Bienville National Forest, a vast expanse that serves as a reminder of the wilder, uncultivated reaches of the state. Beyond the immediate municipal limits, the quiet surface of Shongelo Lake offers a stillness that contrasts with the mechanical hum of the local mills. It is a place that holds its own history in the grain of its wood and the iron of its tracks, moving forward with an endurance earned through generations of working this specific, stubborn soil.
