About this map

The Tchoutacabouffa River winds through the northern landscape of this Mississippi coast survey, eventually widening into Big Lake and the Back Bay Biloxi. This 1990s update, based on topography from the 1950s, reveals a densely developed coastline where military and veteran institutions anchor the community. The massive Keesler Air Force Base dominates the southern peninsula, while the Veterans Administration Center sits nearby, highlighting the area's long-standing strategic importance.

Residential and educational patterns are clear, from the inland settlement of Wool Market to coastal areas like Beauvoir and Edgewater Park. Local history is preserved in the location of several historic schools, including St Martin Sch and Notre Dame High Sch. Across the water, the transition from D'Iberville toward the Harrison Co Jackson Co line shows the sprawling suburban growth of the late twentieth century, with Deer Island shielding the shoreline from the Mississippi Sound.
