How to Use This Waterford, Mississippi Map

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

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 Waterford, Mississippi

Waterford is a locality in Marshall County, Mississippi, United States. It is a small community with a population of 112. The population density is 44.5 people per km². Waterford is located at 34.6476°N, 89.4573°W. It observes the Central Time (America/Chicago) timezone. ZIP codes: 38685, 38635.

Waterford occupies a quiet, inland stretch of northern Mississippi where the earth is defined by the steady, persistent movement of Little Spring Creek. It lies 19.7 miles north of Oxford, MS (from Oxford, MS: bearing 10°T), and is situated 8.3 miles south of Holly Springs. This waterway traces a path through the landscape, carving through the soil with a subtle authority that dictates the local drainage and the verdant, tangled growth of the banks. Beyond the creek, the terrain rises into modest, weathered elevations that soften the horizon, leading the eye toward the distant, hazy silhouette of Hunters Hill. Just a mile to the south, the grounds of Wall Doxey State Park offer a preserved sanctuary of pine and hardwood, while the expansive surface of Sardis Lake rests six miles away, reflecting the vast, open sky of the interior plains. The air here holds a particular weight in the late afternoon, cooling as the shadows lengthen across the fields and the humidity of the day begins to settle into the tall, swaying grasses.

Waterford carries a legacy born of agricultural roots and the slow, deliberate pace of rural commerce that has defined its character for generations. The economy remains tethered to the land, drawing from the surrounding timber and the quiet productivity of the nearby Holly Springs Ranger District, which manages the dense, resilient woodlands that frame the region. Life in Waterford moves with a rhythm set by the turning seasons rather than the frantic demands of the modern clock, allowing the history of the soil to remain palpable in the everyday routines of its inhabitants. There is an enduring quality to the architecture and the quiet lanes, a sense that the passage of time is measured more by the encroaching kudzu and the seasonal harvest than by the rapid shifts of the outside world. It is a place where the silence is not empty, but rather filled with the faint, steady pulse of a geography that remains largely undisturbed by the sprawl of distant urban centers.

About This Waterford Map Page

This page provides an embedded street and satellite map of Waterford, Mississippi. Coordinates: 34.6476, -89.457301. 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 Waterford includes the ZIP code (38685, 38635), telephone area code (601, 769), county seat of Marshall County (Holly Springs), and school district assignment (Marshall 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.
